Cleveland, Ohio Tia Archeiva Parks was a 26-year-old mother of a little girl that had just turned four when she walked in to Preterm, a Cleveland abortion facility, on June 7, 2019, for what seemed like a routine abortion in her first trimester of pregnancy.
But the results were anything but routine. By the time the sun set the next day, Tia Parks was dead.
Parks had a rare potentially life-threatening condition known as heterotopic gestation that went undiagnosed by Preterm staff.
The postmortem diagnosis of a heterotopic gestation means that Parks carried two pregnancies fraternal twins one of which was implanted inside the uterus, and one that implanted in her left fallopian tube.
Tia Parks died from internal hemorrhaging from a ruptured left fallopian tube that occurred either during the abortion of the baby in her womb possibly due to the force of the suction procedure or immediately after.
It was reckless for Preterm to conduct Parks abortion in their outpatient clinic especially since they are so prone to inflicting life-threatening injuries on women during abortions. We have documented over two dozen medical emergencies there, and we know that is just a fraction of women who have been hospitalized after abortions at that facility, said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue. Ms. Parks had several health issues that made her a high risk patient who should have been referred for proper medical care in a hospital setting where her tubal pregnancy may have been detected. That may have spared her life and the life of her baby in the womb.
Molly Smith, President of Cleveland Right to Life, was tipped off to Parks abortion-related death then informed Operation Rescue, which obtained a copy of her autopsy report. That report shed further light on what happened to Parks.
At five feet seven inches tall, Parks weighed 305 pounds. This alone put her at increased risk of serious complications.
She also suffered from an enlarged heart that the autopsy report described as globoid and floppy in configuration. The average adult females heart weighs about 285 grams. Parks heart weighed 520 grams. All four chambers of her heart were dilated, making it unable to pump blood as efficiently as it should have done.
That condition also placed Parks at high risk for a surgical abortion in an outpatient setting.
Timeline
On June 7, Tia Parks underwent a surgical abortion at Preterm, an abortion facility located at 12000 Shaker Boulevard in Cleveland, Ohio. Afterwards, she was released and sent home to recover.
Local pro-life activists who regularly offer help to women outside Preterm told Operation Rescue that abortionist Mitchell Reider was seen at Preterm that day and was believed to have been responsible for conducting the abortion procedures, including Parks.
By the next afternoon, Parks condition had seriously deteriorated and she was rushed by ambulance to the Cleveland Clinic complaining of acute abdominal pain and diaphoresis, the medical term for intense sweating.
She as admitted to the Cleveland Clinic at 1:48 p.m., where she was diagnosed with free fluids in the abdomen. Treatment began, but it was too late. Parks suffered a cardiac arrest and died at 5:01 p.m., leaving her young daughter motherless.
Autopsy findings
The autopsy report noted that the free fluids in the abdomen detected by staff from the Cleveland Clinic was actually 2300 ml (nearly 5 pints) of blood that was the result of hemorrhaging due to a ruptured left fallopian tube.
The autopsy found placental tissue erupting from the tear in the tube and into the abdomen. It also found a placental attachment site on the inside of her uterus. Although Parks abortion a day earlier was never mentioned in the autopsy report, the documentation of a placental attachment site confirms that her intrauterine pregnancy had been aborted.
Round marks were noted on her chest from the defibrillator pads that were used in a vain attempt to save her life.
Parks official cause of death was hemoperitoneum (blood in the abdominal cavity) due to a ruptured fallopian tube due to a heterotopic gestation.
Lakisha Wilson
Tia Park is the second woman to die from complications to an abortion at Preterm. In March 2014, Lakisha Wilson, 22, died from hemorrhaging that was not detected immediately after a second trimester abortion. By the time Preterm staff called 911 for help, Wilson had already stopped breathing.
Unfortunately, despite formal complaints and public calls for disciplinary action and closure of the clinic, no action was ever taken against Preterm or Wilsons abortionist Lisa Perriera. In fact, Perriera was given a promotion and an award the following year by the Physicians for Reproductive Choice.
Pattern of related emergencies
In another incident that reflects the dangers of out-patient abortions on women with high risk factors, a Preterm employee requested additional assistance from 911 for a hemorrhaging woman who weighed about 300 pounds had to be carried down the stairs to an ambulance after the elevator at Preterm broke down. The womans estimated blood loss was 600 ccs, or in American measures, over 20 ounces.
Preterm is also not above discharging women who have not been stabilized after surgical abortions. Last November, Preterm released a woman who was hemorrhaging badly because staff were in a hurry to close for the day. Bleeding through her clothes and in pain, the woman was forced to call 911 for herself just outside Preterms front door without help from Preterms staff.
Blood loss after surgical abortions at Preterm is common. During the most recent medical emergency at Preterm, which occurred on April 17, 2019, two ambulances responded for a 32-year old second trimester patient who was also hemorrhaging uncontrollably.
Local pro-life supporters speak out
A press event will be held at Preterm on Tuesday, September 17, 2019, at 10:00 AM, led by Pastors Walter and Darleen Moss. The event will address the harm and loss of life at Preterm, which targets poor urban women of color for abortions. The public is encouraged to attend in support of efforts to protect women and their babies by closing the Preterm abortion facility.
This callous sentiment tells me more about you than I actually cared to know.
The back alley butchers are suppose to be “safe and legal”. Why do we allow politicians to sustain laws (They appoint the and can impeach judges) where parents of children are “protected” from knowing if their child has an abortion or not (Not in this case, but legal now in most parts)? At least we can start eroding that perverted action, but we can’t even get that far nationwide (But at least we are informed if our child needs a Band-Aid).
Your confusing actual healthcare with women’s healthcare. /s
I never thought about this angle of the problem but how could the abortionists accept a woman who had not even seen a doctor first? Where is the “women’s health” part of this?
Abortion industry is regulated on a downward spiral and protected politically on high. Abortion providers are often the worst physicians in medical school as well as being relegated to “mid-wives”, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners who promote “that right”.
So this is what they mean by a “right to women’s reproductive health?”
3 lives for the price of one! Democrat WIN !!
It’s the typical hypocrisy and word play of the left.
Do you remember when the Democrats gave money to Planned Parenthood? When the Dems were caught doing this they claimed that the money only went to Planned Parenthood for other medical treatments that were not abortion related. Many people were outraged especially when it was learned that Planned Parenthood had given money back to the Democrats! This was money laundering! The Dems gave our tax money to Planned Parenthood and Planned Parenthood gave some of it back to the Dems. Not only were we unknowingly supporting Planned Parenthood but were supporting the Democrats with our tax money! Both totally ILLEGAL!!
This is when I realized that the politicians were running a scam on us. They would give a harmless sounding title to some cause hiding the real purpose of the gift. It was a huge slush fund designed to hide the source of the money (the tax payers) and where it finally ended up—to some noxious group such as Planned Parenthood, Black Lives Matter etc and then finally into the pockets of the Democrat Party. I believe that Republican’s also do it in their own way.
I know...it is infuriating! We must never let them get into power again. They are all thieves, liars, and babykillers!
I was trying to remember the term that is used—”block grants”. Those grants with millions of dollars are passed down to the states where they are distributed to various liberal causes.
Do you think that the Center for Disease Control keeps records of deaths and other harm caused by “legal” abortion?
You are correct. A very common misuse of grammar today and probably for all time - a person would be referred to as “who” and not “that.” I was going to point it out but saw your post before I did....Thank you for that.
This will be a common place story in New York State soon.
Our state’s baby-killing legislature and governor have made it legal for abortion murders to be performed by NON-DOCTORS!!
Who’s a non-doctor?? EVERYONE!
She paid for a killin’;
went to the killin,
got two for the price of one.
But it int murder and is safer than pregnancy...
NO trial.lawyers involved? Wtf
Legal,safe and rare is a myth. They should always assume multiples are a possiblity.
Sympathy is in the dictionary......
Maybe somebody decent will adopt the 4-year-old left, but it is by no means sure that will happen.
Remember, Liberals hate having Sonograms administered at Abortion Clinics.
It might give the Customers, oops Patients bad ideas.
