Planned Parenthood worker horrified by pieces of aborted baby: ‘This was actually a human being’

Warning: Graphic image below.

Patricia Sandoval had three abortions, then went to work at a Planned Parenthood abortion facility. When she started her job, she knew very little about what really happened during an abortion. Workers had lied to her about fetal development when she had her abortions.

Before Sandoval witnessed an abortion at her new job at Planned Parenthood, the facility’s director took her aside and told her, “Don’t ever, ever tell anybody – not even your friends or relatives – about what you see there in the back.”

Sandoval was also trained not to use certain words with the women who came in considering abortion. Such “forbidden” words included “mother,” “father,” and “baby.” But when warning Sandoval, the facility director used those words. She said:

Sandoval witnessed a first-trimester suction aspiration abortion. Afterward, she was asked to examine the remains:

Sandoval’s reaction was one of horror:

Sandoval was shocked even more at the matter-of-fact, unemotional demeanor of the abortion workers, who calmly sorted through the body parts of aborted babies:

Unfortunately, Sandoval kept working at the facility, despite her misgivings and the guilty feelings she had.

The day Sandoval left the abortion facility, the owner was excited because a teenager was scheduled to have an abortion at six months, and the girl was pregnant with twins. A very late-term abortion meant a large amount of money for the facility. Sandoval, already troubled by what she was doing, called a friend in tears from the parking lot. The thought of doing an abortion that late, and on twins, horrified her. She could barely imagine how large and well-developed the pieces of the babies would be. She didn’t think she could stand handling those body parts. Sandoval’s friend urged her to leave the facility and quit her job. Sandoval left the abortion industry for good.
