    Have you had an abortion?

    5 time post abortive woman from Brooklyn New York

     
    My name is Iman Essiet and I am a 22 year old woman. I have had 5 abortions. I wanted to expose the truth about the abortion industry and how abortion has affected me! I regret all five of my abortions Nothing hurts more than knowing that I am suppose to have five daughters here with me. I go through days hurting and private times of weeping and mourning over my daughters. I had my first abortion when I was 16 years old at the Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood.(ALL 5 of y abortions were planned there) I made this decision out of fear and I can also say that this was an uniformed decision. It was interesting how I went to a place that says they promote choice but I was not really given or told my options other that abortion I was not comforted in any way. I felt like this was my only choice. I ended up having four more abortions at this same Margaret Sanger clinic and I can say all five times I was treated the same. Although they saw that I had previously had abortions and most of them were very close together no one ever spoke to me or tried to give me other options or truly see if this was really the "CHOICE" I wanted to make! I can compare that abortion clinic on Bleeker street to an assembly line. It was as if we were like numbered cattle faceless women. This video I have chose has my testimony and it shows the role I play now to contend against abortion and fight for the Truth to be revealed about this industry and for other men and woman to come out and speak up about this injustice.
