Woman who has ‘never been pregnant’ claims in Boston Globe piece to have had multiple life-saving abortions
Fox News
The Boston Globe raised eyebrows with an Emancipator piece from a woman who claimed she had multiple abortions before the age of 21 despite never being pregnant.
"I had my first abortion when I was 11 years old, and another five or six between the ages of 12 and 21. I have Vascular Ehlers-Danlos, an extremely rare genetic connective tissue disorder, one symptom of which is frequent and potentially fatal bleeding. The abortions were my treatment," McKinney wrote. "I have never been pregnant." Brian Flood is a media reporter for Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to brian.flood@fox.com and on Twitter: @briansflood.
McKinney went on to explain that a consequence of her disorder was "excessively heavy menstrual periods, some lasting three to four months," that could only be helped by "approximately seven dilation and curettage" procedures.
