Gianna Jessen wasn’t supposed to live. But she did.

Born alive after her biological mother’s botched late-term abortion at a California Planned Parenthood clinic, Jessen was rushed to a hospital after a nurse called 911.

In an interview with The Daily Signal, Jessen, now a pro-life speaker and activist, said that abortion supporters must deny her existence in order to make their case.

“I’ve been around for a little while, and they are very much aware of what I do,” Jessen said. “The very last thing in the world they want is to hear from people who survive abortion.”

Jessen was the victim of a failed saline abortion at seven and a half months’ gestation, during which she burned alive in her biological mother’s womb for 18 hours.
