As an abortion counselor, Adair was truly seeking to help the lives of women.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that Planned Parenthood really presents itself as, you know, an organization that really helps women,&#8221; Adair said. &#8220;I felt that Planned Parenthood was pro-woman, was helping people, was trying to make lives better for women.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/petition\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-68636 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liveactionnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DefundAd-400b.jpg\" alt=\"DefundAd-400b\" width=\"400\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DefundAd-400b.jpg 400w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DefundAd-400b-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Just months after beginning her new job, Adair noticed the abortion giant was not what it seemed to be. Euphemisms like &#8220;product of conception&#8221; and &#8220;content of the uterus&#8221; were used to make light of horrific situations. Just the name &#8220;Planned Parenthood&#8221; is a term hiding the realities of what the abortion corporation actually does behind closed doors.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When I started counseling&#8230; I realized very quickly that what [Planned Parenthood was] really doing was selling abortions,&#8221; Adair said. &#8220;And within a very short amount of time, I started really having difficulty processing what I was experiencing versus what I believed about the [corporation,] and about what they were telling people in the general public about themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Many women go through the terrible experience of having an abortion, and this should never happen. Dr. Anthony Levatino, who performed over 1,200 abortions,\u00a0explains what a second\u00a0trimester abortion procedure looks like:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jgw4X7Dw_3k\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Adair&#8217;s turning point came when she was asked to help clean up a room where a female had just experienced a second trimester abortion. Seeing a jar containing the arms and legs of an aborted baby, Adair knew she couldn\u2019t do this anymore.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I worked as a medical assistant which basically means that you clean up the room after the abortion to get ready for the next patient,&#8221; Adair recalled. &#8220;When I went into the room I was sort of trying to figure out where things were, and I saw this jar on a side table, and inside the jar were arms and legs of a baby.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the\u00a0end of the phone interview, Adair gave a message of hope to pregnant women seeking help. Pregnant mothers can feel like there are no other options except abortion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This child that you are carrying right now, is your child. And you have the opportunity to be a mother to that child,&#8221; Adair said. &#8220;There are people that will help you, there are people that will listen to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a
