Father barred from protecting Fiancée and saving his Baby
On May 24th, pro-life activist Michael Sweeney stood outside of the Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood abortion facility in Lower Manhattan, New York, attempting to offer help to women seeking abortions.
One man dropped off his fiancée for an abortion. However, Michael explained more about the abortion and what other life-affirming options were available. The man then decided to go back inside Planned Parenthood to speak to his fiancée about alternatives.
However, the security guard posted in the building entryway barred the man from seeing his fiancée, he was not even allowed to re-enter Planned Parenthood’s waiting room.
His loved one was later rushed to NYU Langdon Medical Center several blocks away where she underwent emergency surgery for 2 1/2 hours. The woman’s injuries were severe considering the length of the surgery she endured to repair the damage from the botched abortion and apparently is “recovering slowly”.
Operation Rescue has verified that this was the fifth documented medical emergency at the Margaret Sanger Center Planned Parenthood this year alone, making this Planned Parenthood abortion office one of the most dangerous in the country.
What might have been if that security guard had allowed the man back into Planned Parenthood to speak with his loved one? Perhaps a life would have been saved and a woman spared the traumatic injury of a bungled abortion.
It was obvious that it is Planned Parenthood’s policy to keep companions from interacting with abortion patients once they have been seen so the women will not change their minds at the last minute.
“Planned Parenthood is only about one choice and that is abortion,” said Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue. “If they were really interested in the woman’s well-being, they would not prevent family members from seeing or communicating their loved ones. This is a tragedy that could well have been avoided if Planned Parenthood had treated this couple with dignity instead of like a dollar bill.”
We in Precious Life want to offer women healthcare. Abortion isn’t healthcare. We want to protect and save both the lives of mothers and their babies. Women must be informed of all the alternatives and support for every pregnancy, particularly crisis pregnancies. Motherhood. Fatherhood. Childhood. The human right to life.
