During the viewing, they had approached the casket, and they were about to close it, and
it hit me this was gonna be the last time I saw my sister.
And um, I just broke down, you know, I just—I couldn't control myself.
She was gone and she wasn't coming back.
So it's me, Cree, Ashton, my mom, step-dad Richard, and McKenzie.
I got a call from my mom early in the morning and she never called me that late before.
And, you know, I picked up the phone, you know, instantly I felt like something was
wrong, you know, I kept saying "hello?
Hello?"
I hung up.
And I was like, "okay, well, let me try to call right back."
And my step-dad, Richard, he picked up the phone and said, "It's Cree."
I was like, "What's wrong?
What's going on?"
He said, "she passed."
She was in pain.
My mom had to take her to the hospital, and you know, she laid in the bed, and she didn't
wake up.
-"Hello?"
-"My—my daughter...
I think she's dead!"
She got the abortion at Kalamazoo Planned Parenthood.
She wasn't proud of it, so she basically went by herself.
And the pain never went away, so she would try to, you know, maybe sleep it off, and
she was getting worried.
And, you know, she finally came and told my mom what happened.
From how the coroner explained to my family, um, she's never seen any anybody as mangled
as my sister was.
You would think that the hospital would do something about it.
They looked at the X-Ray and saw that her uterus was perforated, that she was, you know,
bleeding internally.
They still sent her home.
They made it seem like it was okay and "just medicate and you should be fine."
It felt like they were trying to cover up for Planned Parenthood.
It was trying to—it felt like they were trying to cover up the abortion, try to cover
up the cause of her death and I was upset.
They're ravaging these women.
I want to know why my—my sister's life wasn't convenient—like, wasn't good enough to save.
It's not just Cree.
There's people before Cree and there's people after Cree, and going forward, as long as
they're gonna be open, there's gonna to be more deaths.
It's not a safe procedure.
My sister's gone.
My sister died.
They killed my sister.
Planned Parenthood is evil, they trying to—they're killing people.
Not just babies, but they're killing women as well.
I'm all in it now.
I'm gonna continue to be in it.
Until they're shut down.
I want Planned Parenthood to be off the table as a choice.
Ultimately, that's what I want to happen.
We approached Planned Parenthood to try to get Cree's medical documents from them, but
they weren't willing to give them to us.
Justice has not been given to my sister.
I lost two people that day.
Not just a sister, but a niece or a nephew as well.
