âNo matter how much you shame and scare them, women will still come for abortions. Pretty recently I had this young woman, 15 maybe, and we did the procedure. I said, âYour uterus is empty, the procedure is over. I have to go check to make sure we got everything,â and I left the room to examine the tissue. Then I came back and told her, âEverythingâs fine, your uterus is healthy.â And she said, âSo ⊠when are you going to use the steel ball?â I picked my jaw up off the floor and said, âSteel ball?â She said, âWell, I went to the crisis pregnancy center and they told me youâre going to put a steel ball thatâs covered with sharp blades into my uterus and twirl it around.â And this kid still came! I was thinking, How did you ever make yourself walk in the office believing I was going to do that?â
