"THE MURDER OF BABIES BORN & UNBORN"

"THE MURDER OF BABIES BORN & UNBORN"
my testimony

5/28/2002

Dear Sirs & Ladies:

I am a retired career hospital Paramedic turned emergency room Nurse. Few lay people outside of health care can appreciate the untold lifetimes of memories - of both nightmares and miracles - that I have seen. Let me tell you about one of those nightmares that haunts me still.

I once had a paramedic backup request from a basic ambulance unit for a "woman bleeding vaginally." I recall it was a dirty, run down 2nd floor walk up in a dirty, run down city.

The cops and the EMT's were already there. My partner and I entered the apartment to find a young black female sitting quietly on a mobile "stair chair", with the cops and EMT guys all standing around looking worried for the girl, who was maybe 15.

The patient looked just fine. Her vitals from the EMT's were ok. The guys were all just scared because they found a lot of blood around the apartment. The girl said nothing to us about why she was bleeding vaginally.

I was just on the verge of telling the guys to ship her off to the emergency room without our help, as she didn't need medic care.

Suddenly, one of the cops motioned to me to come over to the bathroom. I went in and he pointed to a dirty bathtub. In the tub was a newborn dead baby with the umbilical cord wrapped around its neck and body, in a clear plastic bag, covered with blood. The cop and I looked at each other without speaking.

So now we knew the cause of the young girl's vaginal bleeding. She had recently given birth, but had not told any of the guys when they asked her what was up. The baby was stone dead and long past working the child up as a code.

All I remember next - and this was maybe 17 years ago - was I walked back out to the room where the patient was. I just stared at her and our eyes met. I said nothing and neither did she.

From what I remember we found out, it was a normal birth long before any of us got to the scene. The young teenage mother just didn't want the baby, so she murdered the child by suffocation.

One by one, the guys went in and then quickly out of the bathroom to see the newborn dead baby, with the umbilical cord wrapped around its poor little body, covered in blood, in a clear plastic bag, sitting on the bottom of a filthy tub.

Strange, but throughout nursing school, we never really learned much about abortion. My first full time job as an emergency room Nurse was at a large urban teaching Catholic Hospital. It was there I first heard about the gruesome medical and nursing facts of how different abortion procedures "terminate" an unborn baby, how there is no such thing as a "safe and painless" abortion, what horrid risks and aftereffects women suffer because of abortion. This was vital knowledge for us, as many post-abortion women in distress sought our help under the Cross of Christ of our hospital.

Many post-abortion women came to us in terrible suffering, pain and fear. I remember uncontrolled vaginal bleeds, retained "products of conception," septic infections, uterine surgical emergencies, tears, sorrow and regret of many such young women, most just teenagers.

I have recently read of the horrors of "born alive" abortion babies, where women have abortions, but the baby is delivered alive, and how such babies are left to die. When I read of those monstrous scandals in some American hospitals, I remembered that case of the dead newborn baby in the bathtub so many years ago. "Born alive" abortion babies aren't suffocated; they are just left without nourishment, warmth or care to expire "of natural causes" to complete such botched abortions.

I fondly remember being present with my wife when my daughter was born some time ago. I often relive the great joy and happiness I felt when I saw our baby being born. I remember when my wife was first pregnant, we were a scared young couple on our own. We considered an abortion. We even made an appointment and walked around the block past the clinic. I never stop thanking Heaven that we never went in to the abortion clinic for that appointment.

My teenage daughter is now the age of that young girl of the murdered newborn some years ago. I have no fear that my daughter would ever do such a thing, as we have taught her that all human life is precious and a gift from GOD, that abstinence until marriage, and then marriage based on love and Faith is the best course. But there are many young people out there who do not know God's Ways about such matters and suffer so as a result.

Sometimes, I also remember that dead little baby in the bathtub many years ago and cry in my soul for the child. I sometimes light a candle for that murdered newborn baby. Once in a while I remember that dead little newborn baby in the tub, I shed a tear.

When I think of the 40 million plus abortions done in America, I also cry in my soul. (For comparison, Hitler murdered 13 million civilians, Stalin 20 million, Mao 20 million.) Sometimes I light a candle for all those murdered unborn babies, victims of the genocide of abortion. Once in a while and I think of the terrible suffering of aborted babies -- and their mothers and fathers never to be - I shed a tear.

The murder of babies -- born and unborn -- is the surest sign of a nation's depravity, wickedness and loss of humanity. "Woe unto them who call evil good, and good evil." For the blood of all such innocents so murdered, does not Heaven shed a tear? Let us stop the murder of babies in America - both born and unborn. May GOD have mercy on us, in JESUS' Name, Amen.

Signed,

Mr. Robert Baral, RN,CEN,EMT-P
