“Instead of dying, after 18 hours of being burned in my mother’s womb, I was delivered alive in an abortion clinic in Los Angeles on April the 6th, 1977. My medical records state: ‘Born alive during saline abortion at 6 am.’ “
These are the chilling words of Gianna Jessen, an abortion survivor who lived through a saline abortion procedure 42 years ago.
“I should be blind, burned, and dead,” explained Jessen. “Had [the doctor] been there, he would have ended my life with strangulation, suffocation, or leaving me to die without a thought.”
The Nashville resident has made it her life mission to stand up for the unborn by testifying before Congress and traveling across the globe to tell her story.
Over the decades, her message has continued to inspire millions and champion for the right to life… but her own life has not been without struggle.
