Video: US woman posts video of her abortion on YouTube

A US abortion counselor outraged thousands of people after she posted a video of herself having an abortion on YouTube. 25 year old Emily Letts, who said she got pregnant by mistake, filmed herself having a surgical abortion, which she said she wanted to use to "show other women it wasn't scary".

Emily, who was about 2 months pregnant, said she could have swallowed an abortion pill instead of going in for surgery, but wanted to do the one that women were most afraid of. "I wanted to show it wasn’t scary - and that there is such a thing as a ppositive abortion story. It’s my story."

In the three minutes video, Emily is seen being wheeled into the operating theater before being filmed from the waist up as doctors remove the embryo from her womb. She remains awake throughout the procedure, numbed only by local anesthetic. After the procedure is over, Emily excitedly says 'I'm done. Yay!'

The video has disgusted many people, especially pro-life campaigners who are asking her bosses at the Cherry Hill Women's Center in New Jersey to sack her.
"I got... "You deserve to die", "you killed your baby' but I don't feel like a bad person. I knew I wasn't ready to take care of a child. I knew what I was going to do was right - it was right for me and for no one else,' Emily said. Watch the video after the cut...

    1. Which mumu story is she sharing? D abortion is bad enough, why show d procedure? Doesn't make any logically sense to me. Cant judge her 4 having an abortion, but I'm so pissed she is sharing it.

    1. I pity you.may you not look for children and if you already have may your children not look for children. What the girl did is not new but having such casual approach to such an act is what is surprising! Like I said may you or your children not search for children because you would regret what you just said.

  54. The video didn't show any part of her procedure. It gave a narration of how she feels about deciding to have an abortion. There have been confessions from LIBers admitting to abortions, so they they happen in Nigeria too. Her story will resonate with someone who's experiencing the same situation or who's been in her shoes.

  55. In two months of the pregnancy, there's no child developing yet. All she did was stop the process, did you see them bring out a dead child, would you rather have her deliver a baby she doesn't want and leave the baby to suffer or end up killing the child.. Abortion is wrong when you have a child developing already & abortion is the same as the 'morning after pills' they are doing the same thing.. Please educate yourself. It's not a good thing to constantly do, but once you've made the mistake learn from it

  59. I personally condemn the fact that this woman aired what was supposed to be her private affair, but I can swear that all the women condemning her on this blog have had up to 10 DCs and the. Men sponsored 10 also. I am pro-life but I respect her views.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I agree that she shouldnt have posted this online for everyone to see but what she did is not wrong. You do not know her situation and you shouldn't judge what you don't know and even if you do you still shouldn't judge its not your job. I wouldnt take the life of a child but that doesn't mean that other people don't have that choice. It's not against the law the only thing this woman has done is shared something she thought was important to others.

  61. This is casual abortion! On demand, casual abortion. The kind many women have strongest feelings against. The kind most want to see less of, not more. She set out to do this, from what she says. Positive experience.???
    She murdered a life. Hers was not in danger. Adoption could have been considered since she advertised she was pregnant! And anonymous your wrong, nobody had 10 DCs. Maybe you did!!!

    Loll, u people r funny. Most naija girls have aborted like twice or thrice in their lives. Lairs, I hate nigerians and their fakeness. It is heart aching. Stop criticizing this woman
