This Nurse Performed 2 Abortions, Then She Did This

The reality of abortion is so much more disturbing than arguments about it.

A nurse identified as “Julia” told Priests for Life why she quit working at a facility that performed abortions. She worked on a gynecology and tumor unit at a teaching hospital in North Carolina that also had 4 beds for abortions.

The abortions performed on the floor were a kind called prostaglandin abortions – where labor is induced early. If the contractions didn’t kill them, babies were purposely delivered too young to survive. “Babies aborted by prostaglandin often have bruising over their entire bodies. For the most part, the abortion business stopped using prostaglandin because so many babies were born alive.”

After assisting on just 2 abortions, Julia started to change her mind about abortion. She says the experience of abortion is much more powerful than just hearing about it or even seeing pictures. “There is a sensation of life, of a living thing. … Even a movie does not capture the whole picture,” she explained.

It only took a few more abortions before Julia was convinced she couldn’t participate in these babies’ deaths anymore.

Now instead of performing abortions, Julia wants to do all she can to end abortion.
