Stop the killing at the abortuary in Regions Hospital

"We, the undersigned, are very concerned that HealthPartners continues to commit abortions (up to as late as 20 weeks of gestation) at Regions Hospital. We respectfully request that the HealthPartners Board of Directors votes to end this practice immediately and to assure the public that it is committed to the health of all its patients including the health of the most vulnerable—the unborn."

1	Brian Gibson	HealthPartners needs to get out of the abortion business. Killing unborn babies is not health care.	MN	55175-0368
2	Richard Schletty	HealthPartners, one of Minnesota's largest health organizations, is killing unborn babies inside an abortuary they own and operate. This abortuary is very unusual, being completely contained within Regions Hospital (formerly St. Paul-Ramsey Medical Center) in St. Paul. Ob-Gyn residents at the University of Minnesota Medical School take a rotation through this facility. Abortions are committed into the sixth month of pregnancy at HealthPartners' Regions Hospital! There is NO mention of this abortuary on HealthPartner's site!	Saint Paul	MN	55107	02

5	Susan Bickford	I am appalled to learn my insurance pays for this. All the while here I am struggling to protect my children and give them the best possible health. Healthpartners is training people and allowing them to kill innocent lives? What about the health of the small and defenseless? This goes against the very philosophy Healthpartners says it strives for. Wrong wrong wrong.	Andover	MN	55304	01

My network of business will also be made aware of what is going on under your company's authority. 100's of people in my e-mail list will receive this information today.

28	Patricia A. German	Dear Regions CEO and Boardmembers, Please, realize that everyone was, is, and always will be a former fetus, human baby. We all relied on mature former fetus to protect, nurture, and feed us until we where 18 years of age and beyond. Please reconsider doing abortions at Regions Hospital. I am a woman, who is appalled by all politicians and judges who think that women are so weak and unable to fulfill their dreams, unless they have the right to kill their own babies, (who seem to be in the way at the moment) within their wombs. This is so sad. I was tempted by this right to have on abortion once. Thanks to our almighty creator and my baby’s creator, for we all have the same one, provided me with all the human support and truth about human development and abortion. I have my former fetus giving me hugs and difficulties today. So many mothers have fallen for this so called easy answer called abortion. This saddens me so deeply. Today, I am the mother of eleven living children and because of a natural miscarriage one dead child. I still would be the mother of twelve children but two would be dead. My plans all worked out. My husband and I did open our own business along with giving birth to our baby. Well the business failed after a number of years and we went on to other jobs. Our baby is still with us growing body and wisdom, who is supporting us in what we are doing. Not a helpless, dismembered, dead, disregarded, in the way, little fetus (such a sterile word) which means baby. I don't have to tell any in the medical field this you know. It is so sad the average mother doesn't. Women are hurting out here because they are still mothers after they leave your compassionate hospital. They were mothers of a living baby before they laid on that table for your abortion procedure or she wouldn't be there. When this mother gets off the table after the abortion surgery is completed; she now is the mother of a dead baby. Did you allow her to grieve her loss? Did you give her a loving hug and say, "I'm so sorry for the loss of your child?" When a mother has lost her child this is all that is necessary to comfort her. I know for I have experienced this myself in my loss of my fetus. I've done this a number of times with my friends whether their child died of a natural miscarriage or later at age 26. If she can't grieve with you, where can she? The political world won't let her, the judges won't let her and the media won't let her. Our society doesn’t allow her to grieve openly, and then we would be found with guilt, for it was her choice and she made it, right. Wrong!! Dead wrong!! This comfort must come before the death of the child also. I’m sure your staff provides this comfort in all other medical rooms where death is imminent in your great hospital, so in compassion you must provide this need in the abortion room also. They say second hand smoke has a chance to bring about cancer in the innocent so we must band smoking in public places. I'm sure that you give each mother all the knowledge she has the legal right to. Do you let her know that her chance of getting breast cancer is high? There is medical research that says that an elective abortion may bring on breast cancer, innocent mothers have a right to this information also. When a woman comes in does anyone take her into a private room, by herself, so she is allowed to answer freely, and ask her if she is here on her own free will and no one is demanding her to abort? Are the minors told their parents can’t make them abort? Is this venerable mother told there is help out there to protect her from parents, boyfriends and husbands? All, I ask is that you treat women who are mothers with dignity. Giving them the complete truth, not only the right to reproductive freedom, of choosing to abort their baby, but all the support out there to continue to be the mother of her now living baby not the grieving mother of her soon to be dead child. The mother of a live baby or the mother of a dead baby are the only really choices when it comes to the right to choose any way. Correct me if I’m wrong. Remember I’m the mother of one dead and eleven living babies. I’ve carried them all. I’ve done the science experiment and it only produces this data. These two choices have been forced upon mothers with the motto “The Right to Choose”. The mother’s right to choose death for her baby and grief for herself without any joy of motherhood to sustain her; or the mother’s right that allows her baby to live and to bring her girl or boy into this wonderful, yes painful world, which we all need to live in, and make it a better place. I’m a grieving mother who wants to be next to all mothers who have succumb to the first choice. I’m offering my compassion to join with Regions Hospital’s for all pregnant woman who are looking at or have chosen abortion as an answer.

How can I trust them to save my life when they are in the killing business? I will definitely re-think maintaining my HP membership.	NEW BRIGHTON	MN	55112	01
