As LifeNews reported last year, Cheryl Sullenger, Senior Policy Advisor for Operation Rescue and Pro-Life Nation notified LifeNews the abortion center would close, saying Capital Care has been plagued with decreased business and financial problems and recently cut back clinic hours due to difficulty keeping an abortion practitioner employed. An increasingly strong pro-life presence in Central Ohio is credited with contributing to the decision to close, she added.
She indicated that two abortion practitioners known to work at Capital Care are Harley Blank and Thomas Michaelis. Blank, who also works at the Founder’s Women’s Health Center abortion clinic in Columbus, was honored by Planned Parenthood earlier this year for his 30-year career as an abortionist in Columbus.
30 years as an abortionist, I wonder how many babies he killed.
I'm sure this Operation Rescue administrator thinks she personally closed down this clinic. However, these are usually business decisions and as I said above, in Columbus, the prospective patients will probably just go somewhere else.
Another victory for the helpless unborn, the most vulnerable in our society.
Ok, so now what happens to them. There is a reason a woman wants an abortion.....she doesn't want to have a child. I'm not sure how it's a victory for the unborn when they grow up never being wanted or being put in foster care and probably never being adopted. Please explain to me why that's a victory because I don't see it that way.

Whatever happened to adoption at birth? How and why has that quit being an option in our society?

the only time that happens is through private adoption methods. Many poor women are not afforded to be able to do so. Thousands of women per day give birth. Are you able to track thousands of children born and get adopted right away?
I really wish people would read the article before going off on a tangent
Michaelis, who now works at the Capital Care Network abortion clinic in Toledo, has a history of a different sort. In 1991, he was convicted of two counts of Attempted Gross Sexual Imposition, one count of Voyeurism, and one count of Public Indecency. The convictions involved incidents where Michaelis engaged in sexual predation on minor girls.
CHCW is operated by abortion practitioner Mervyn J. Samuel and the medical transcripts were smuggled out of a Columbus hospital and redacted by the informant before they were given to Operation Rescue. The records show that on March 16, 2012, a 23-year old woman reported to a hospital emergency room with heavy bleeding and fever after an abortion by “Dr. Samuel” with a possible incomplete abortion. The patient suffered significant bleeding and drove herself to the ER while suffering lightheadedness and dizziness.
OR indicates a pro-life sidewalk counselor at the abortion center noticed another failed abortion. In July 2010, the counselor observed a young woman leaving the abortion clinic after an abortion. The young woman swooned, dropped to her knees, and began to vomit. She was bleeding heavily through her clothing. The sidewalk counselor ran to assist the 19-year old abortion patient and drove her to the local hospital where she was treated.
The newly-obtained medical transcripts indicated that the patient was 13 weeks pregnant at the time of her abortion. She had been “nauseated and lightheaded” while at the abortion clinic, but was discharged while still suffering these symptoms after having been at the clinic for a total of only two hours. At the emergency room, she was treated for heavy bleeding, and given medication for her dizziness and nausea. She was discharged after having spent six hours at the hospital.
I guess some people will stand up for an abortionist even if he rapes or kills women, who cares if some women die---huh? You have to keep abortion going at any cost.
Operation Rescue also has documentation of a dozen OSHA violations at Complete Health Care for Women – four of which were classified as “serious” – that netted the abortion business fines totaling $5,061. The most serious infractions had to deal with “blood-borne pathogens”, meaning the clinic failed to protect workers and patients from contamination caused by exposure to blood.
“Here is an abortion clinic that is endangering the lives and health of women every day. Women do not know when they walk into that office if they are going to wind up in the hospital or worse,” said Sullenger.
She added, “Rest assured that the appropriate complaints are being filed against Mervyn Samuel so that he can be legally prevented from inflicting his brand of abortion quackery on others.”

You've just made an argument for keeping abortion legal.
[because back alley abortions will be far more dangerous]

I have no idea but that doesn't seem to happen anymore. People think there are too many abortions. But there are so many kids that are born that no one wants. Who advocates for these kids that are already born...certainly not the pro life group. They don't want you to have an abortion but they could care less what happens to that child once they are born.
