Gianna Jessen was a 7-month-old unborn baby when her mother underwent a saline abortion. Gianna was left burning inside her womb for 18 hours. The saline solution was meant to kill her, but she did not die. She was delivered alive and saved by a nurse who took pity on her.
Because of the abortion, Gianna was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Through sheer perseverance, and support from her adoptive family, she took her first step when she was four. Now Gianna travels the world, telling her incredible story. She has appeared on ABC, NBC and this November is coming to 6 Irish Universities.
Gianna is now 28 years old and is interested in real estate, singing and song writing. She is now touring the world speaking out against abortion and trying to get people to see the humanity of the unborn child -- the person who is killed by the process. "It is so much more comfortable not to talk about what it really is," she said.
Gianna says that she is saddened by pro-abortion groups' attempts to either ignore her or belittle her message. "If abortion is merely about women's rights, then what were mine? There wasn't those particular kind of feminist squawking about my rights, in fact, those types of feminists prefer I'd die," she said.
Jessen said that the abortion practitioner began the abortion process on her mother and left. Had he been present he would likely have finished the abortion and killed her.
Gianna is touring Ireland as part of The Revelation Tour in Irish Colleges in late November. The tour is organised by Ultrasound – a pro-life student organisation which is going from strength to strength in our colleges and universities.
Make sure to come to see her at a University near you!
