The pro-lifers seemed desperate and Lexi couldn't understand why. Wasn't this just a blob of tissue?

Lexi was pregnant and felt she had no choice. She went to the abortion clinic to get "rid of" her 13 week "problem" so that she could get on with her life. The clinic verified her pregnancy, placed three seaweed sticks in her cervix to dilate her and asked her to return for a surgical abortion because of how far along she was. Lexi was scared, but did not know what else to do. She was not with her boyfriend anymore and her mother wasn't going to help her raise a child. She worked part-time but wanted a better job and better life and, after all, the people in the clinic said it wasn't a baby yet, just a blob of tissue.

So Lexi didn't eat the night before her "procedure." Her mother took her to the clinic. As they approached the office, they saw people scattered out on the sidewalk, some holding signs, some praying. Some seemed to be talking to people in the parking lot. There were security guards barking at the ones on the street and they waved Lexi in. They parked and as they walked toward the clinic, the families on the street were calling out not to go in; that they would help them. The sidewalk counselors were saying that the clinic had a bad record and had been shut down in the past for health violations. The pro-lifers seemed desperate and Lexi couldn't understand why. Wasn't this just a blob of tissue? She and her mother scurried into the clinic.

Lexi was separated from her mother and taken to a back room, where she was given a gown and some medicine. She was laid out on a table, with her feet up, and then she faded off to sleep. When she awoke, she was sore and felt like she had been gutted. She was still cramping and bleeding, but was told this would be gone within a few days. She had a drink and snack and then left the clinic with her mother. There were only a couple people left on the sidewalk, and they offered a pamphlet and a prayer as she drove by them. The ladies seemed to have such a defeated look in their eyes.

Lexi went back to her life after a few days, her part-time job and hanging out with friends. Days became weeks and Lexi kept waiting to lose that bloated pregnant feeling, but it didn't go away. One morning she awoke feeling sick to her stomach. She started to have some cramps and they got so intense she had to go to the emergency room. The doctor there did an ultrasound of her stomach and asked her when she had her abortion. Lexi told him it was about six weeks ago. Lexi was stunned when the doctor said that not only was her baby still there, but that he looked about 19 weeks and perfectly healthy...
