From the Executive Director, Jacqui Fetsko
Just a thought....do we realize the power we have when we speak the truth, when we protest injustice and pursue the good? Do we??? I wonder. We have the capability to share the message so quickly to so many at once, are we taking advantage of that? We have a case of criminal negligence and an illegal abortion right in our own backyard. See here: http://www.operationrescue.org/archives/npr-ignores-facts-about-ohio-abortion-patient-death-while-siding-with-those-that-killed-her/
Where is the public outcry? Where is the Cuyahoga County District Attorney? Ohio Department of Health? Ohio Medical Board? I am unabashedly disgusted by the lack of care for this case. Last year , March 21, 2014, a woman's life was lost along with her baby at the hands of Lisa Perriera who could give a darn about either one of them. I make that assumption since there was no viability testing and apparent record tampering in order to get the almighty dollar(s) from Lakisha Wilson. Preterm has no concern for their malfunctioning elevator nor for their clients who may run into complications (and may need a functioning elevator for life saving help). Folks, THEY DON'T CARE and they know they can get away with it because they have!
I am pleading with all of you to (1) call the powers that be, who should be investigating this case and (2) get others to do the same. We cannot afford to bury our heads in the sand on this one. Preterm should have been closed down a long time ago. Please, do something if you have not already! The names and numbers are below:
Tim McGinty Cuyahoga County Prosecutor, 9th Floor 1200 Ontario, Cleveland OH 44113 (216)443-7800

"It's a Matter of Life"....... by Denver Sallee
Hardship or inconvenience to the life of the mother is often cited as justification for an abortion. That same "logic" is being increasingly applied as a reason for ending the life of elderly persons. Under the guise of palliative care, it is a growing practice in some facilities, with or without the complicity of the families, to administer "terminal sedation" or more accurately, "late term" abortion for the elderly. Antibiotics are delayed or not given for easily treatable infections. Add starvation, dehydration and terminal sedation. Abortion completed. Everyone is saved anxiety, money and hassle. Except, perhaps, the patient. But he is drugged, so whatever objections he may have had, no one ever has to hear them. Welcome to the realities of the culture of death.
