In 2017, Live Action published an except<\/a>\u00a0from Abby Johnson\u2019s book, “The Walls are Talking<\/a>.” \u00a0It was the story of a Planned Parenthood worker who witnessed the abortion of quadruplets, two of whom came out with their arms around each other. Now this worker has come forward to tell more of her story<\/a>. Her name is Myra Kincaid.<\/p>\n

Kincaid was employed as a surgical assistant at a Planned Parenthood facility in Baltimore, Maryland. Kincaid told the Daily Caller<\/a> that the organization reached out to recruit her as soon as she graduated from college. At the job interview, the Planned Parenthood representative said very little about abortion. Instead, she told Kincaid that Planned Parenthood provided cancer screening and other forms of legitimate health care.\u00a0But the abortion corporation is doing fewer of these services and more abortions<\/a>, with the numbers of non-abortion services decreasing every year. Based on its\u00a02017-2018 report<\/a>, the number of cancer screenings done at Planned Parenthood dropped by 7% in 2017. Planned Parenthood is doing 68% fewer cancer screenings now than ten years ago. Contraception services are also down. Well Women exams are down by 8% since last year. Only abortions and \u201cmiscarriage maintenance,\u201d a new category recently added by Planned Parenthood, have risen.<\/p>\n

Although little was said about abortion when she was interviewed, Kincaid says that as soon as she was hired, she was “thrown right into the surgical room where they perform the abortions, and that\u2019s because they were so short-staffed that they had to rush me through training.”<\/p>\n

Like many former Planned Parenthood workers, Kincaid tried to convince herself that she was helping women. But seeing the body parts of babies after abortions distressed her. She says, “It wasn\u2019t until I had to actually pick out the pieces of children, that\u2019s when I started looking at these little arms and little legs. They\u2019re like little dolls.”<\/p>\n
