Recently released 911 records show that a 22-year old patient was hospitalized
after her uterus was torn during a surgical abortion at the Near North Planned
Parenthood facility in Chicago. This life-threatening emergency occurred on
Jan 7, 2022.
The Pro-Life Action League obtained 911 records of the incident, including a
recording
of the 911 call.
The Planned Parenthood staffer who made the call said that the woman suffering
from a torn uterus was not bleeding. This was likely inaccurate, however. Even
though she may not have appeared to be bleeding, such an injury would have
caused internal bleeding.
Operation Rescue, an organization that tracks injuries caused by abortion
clinics, noted that the Near North Planned Parenthood facility caused the
death of Tonya Reaves in 2012 after a perforated uterus caused her to bleed to
death internally.
Operation Rescue also noted that the
Event Details
printout simply stated "22 yo female not feeling well." This is despite the
ambulance being dispatched at priority 1A, the code used for the most serious
medical emergencies.
Operation Rescue President Troy Newman said that it is becoming more common
for abortion-related emergencies to be downplayed in 911 records. "Sometimes
it is the abortion workers who misrepresent life-threatening injuries, and
sometimes it is the city or county employees that are creating and redacting
the records."
This is the twenty-fourth recorded instance of a patient at the Near North
Planned Parenthood being hospitalized in the past six years.
