Rachel M. MacNair “I have fetus dreams, we all do here: dreams of abortions one after the other; of buckets of blood splashed on the walls; trees full of crawling fetuses,” reported Sallie Tisdale of her time as a nurse in an abortion facility. Writing in
Harper’s magazine, she told of dreaming that two men grabbed her and dragged her away. “Let’s do an abortion,” they said with a sickening leer, and I began to scream, plunged into a vision of sucking, scraping pain, of being spread and torn by impartial instruments that do only what they are bidden.

Priests for Life National Director Says Pro-Life Gains Can’t Be Undone by Policy
Frank Pavone on the pro-life movement: Proceed with confidence
In 1994, a young woman went to get an abortion, but when she looked out the window of the facility, she saw a priest. She decided to go outside to talk to the praying man.

One of Dr. LeRoy Carhart’s “Clinics for Abortion & Reproductive Excellence” named to yield the Orwellian acronym CARE is located about a mile away from my parish in Bethesda, Maryland. Earlier this year, 40 Days for Life prayed daily outside Carhart’s abortuary, which specializes in late-term “terminations.” Parishioners from a number of local churches participated in the 40 Days program, hoping to save some innocent lives and to help women in crisis pregnancies find genuine care. Forty Days’ presence at the Carhart facility evidently did not sit well with some of the students at a nearby county-run high school. So a “pro-choice drive-by” of Carhart’s clinic was organized in mid-December: Perhaps 15 cars, festooned with posters, circled the parking lot of the office complex in which Carhart conducts his abattoir.
