Former abortionist Janet Rogers used to think that supporting pro-choice women for a living was "the job of my dreams."
But everything changed after she witnessed the birth of a baby who was left to die at a hospital in Oakland, California where she worked as a nurse.
"I got hired as a charge nurse at this clinic that did late term abortions. I spent about 30 days on the day shift getting familiar with everything. I would witness and assist the doctor in the actual procedure, injection of drugs to the foetus, the seaweed..." she shared with Life Site News.
"On the day shift I really never saw the actual start of the contractions or the termination process. I was uncomfortable, but I really thought to myself, this was something new and I needed to get more experience," she continued.
Following these abortion procedures, the woman is dilated with laminaria, placing sticks made of seaweed in her cervix. As for the unborn baby, drugs would be injected into the foetus to kill the latter on the first day of the procedure.
Rogers never really witnessed first-hand these procedures. But after she got promoted, she finally saw what the hospital was really doing to aborted babies. One particular late-term abortion scarred Rogers. She was inside the room with a doctor who tagged her patient as 15 weeks' old, referring to the duration of her pregnancy. However, the woman looked more like she was on her 30th week of pregnancy.
"When she delivered this tiny baby (it looked full term to me), she was actually alive and crying. The doctor said to me, 'Put it in the room and close the door. Do not enter til the morning shift.' I immediately took the crying baby and wrapped it up and laid it in a room," she recalled.
"I then immediately started calling hospitals around (against the doctor's wishes) to find someone that would take it. None around would take it cause they said it was not viable. I spent many hours trying. I just wanted to leave this place, but I knew I could not walk out and leave other patients without a charge nurse. [Until] this day I hear this crying infant in my head," Rogers confessed.
Despite everything she did, the baby still died. The day after the baby died, Rogers quit her job and landed a new one in a paedriatric unit of another hospital.
Rogers hopes that other people who support abortion would experience what she did so that their eyes will be opened to the truth.
