Operation Rescue reports<\/a> that Hope Clinic in Granite City, Illinois, has injured another woman, with a 911 call from May 22 indicating that a 31-year-old woman was experiencing “heavier than normal bleeding\u201d after an abortion procedure.<\/p>\n

Though the 911 caller gave little information as to the patient’s condition, hemorrhaging is a known abortion risk, often due to uterine perforation. The Hope Clinic facility advertises abortions through 24 weeks of pregnancy; the most common procedure at this late stage is dilation and evacuation<\/a> (D&E).<\/p>\n

This is a procedure in which the abortionist uses a Sopher clamp to grasp the preborn child’s limbs and dismember her, removing her from the uterus, usually in pieces. Afterward, the abortionist uses a tool called a curette to scrape the lining of the uterus and ensure that no pieces of the child’s body are left behind. Complications may include uterine perforation, laceration, infection, hemorrhage, or death.<\/p>\n
