Informed Consent for Abortion?


With all the talk of abortion and the laws being changed in some states, with the phrases, "Informed Consent" and "The Right to Choose" being bandied about, I decided to see exactly what Planned Parenthood's website said about abortion.

"in-clinic abortion works by using suction to "take a pregnancy out of your uterus.""

"using suction to "empty your uterus...""

If you're above 16 weeks pregnant: "Dilation and Evacuation (D & E) is another kind of in-clinic abortion procedure. It uses suction and medical tools to "empty your uterus".

The Planned Parenthood site description is of "pregnancy tissue"  being removed, and how abortion pain varies from patient to patient, with some experiencing a "super painful" abortion while for most it feels like "strong period cramps."

As near as I can tell, both types of abortion offered, require some dilation and both utilize suction, with later term abortions requiring tools to scrape the uterus clean of all "pregnancy tissue".

"Pregnancy Tissue" or "Clump of Cells." Call it anything other than what it actually is.

This is the same kind of word games utilized by the Nazis, prior to WWII, to convince themselves that Jews weren't human beings.
How can a person have the "Right to Choose" if they don't know what they are, in actuality, choosing? How can you have "Informed Consent" if you are no better informed than to believe you're merely going to have "Pregnancy Tissue" removed during an abortion?

People who are Pro-Abortion and believe in the Right to Choose become highly offended when shown the truth. When shown what an abortion actually is, what it actually does to the "Pregnancy Tissue" and how the "Pregnancy Tissue" has its arms and legs ripped from its tiny torso, and its tiny skull crushed with metal clamps before being sucked out through a big rubber hose into a container, to be placed in a cold metal dish or pan and "reassembled" into the former state of the "Pregnancy Tissue" prior to abortion to make certain no "Pregnancy Tissue" has remained in the uterus.
Only if you are fully cognizant of that with which you are pregnant, and what ending that pregnancy actually means, can you possibly make an "Informed Consent"! How can you have the freedom to choose something you don't fully understand? Why should you have that freedom?

embryo

 [em´bre-o]
new organism in the earliest stage of development. In humans this is defined as the developing organism from the fourthday after fertilization to the end of the eighth week. After that the unborn baby is usually referred to as the fetus. adj., adj em´bryonal, embryon´ic.

Immediately after fertilization takes place, cell division begins and progresses at a rapid rate. At approximately 4 weeks thecell mass becomes a recognizable embryo from 7 to 10 mm long with rudimentary organs. The beginnings of the eyes, ears,and extremities can be seen. By the end of the second month the embryo has grown to a length of 2 to 2.5 cm, and the headis the most prominent part because of the rapid 
development of the brain; the sex can be distinguished at this stage.

At the time of fertilization, the ovum contains the potential beginnings of a human being. As cell division takes place the cells of the blastoderm 
(embryonic disk) gradually form three layers from which all the body 
structures develop. The ectoderm(outer layer) gives rise to the epidermis of the skin and its appendages, and to the nervous system. The mesoderm (middle layer) develops into muscle, connective tissue, the circulatory organs, circulating lymph and blood cells, endothelial tissues within the closed vessels and cavities, and the epithelium portion of the urogenital system. From the endoderm (internal layer)are derived those portions not arising from the ectoderm, the liver, the pancreas, and the lungs.
