When young “K’s” friend called an HC partnering life-affirming center, “K” was in crisis. Her severe morning sickness made it difficult for her to do anything. Her friend shared with a staff member that “K” was not ready – emotionally or physically – to have the baby. Instead, “K” wanted an abortion. After learning more about the life-affirming center, however, “K’s” friend made an appointment for her.
Following her visit to the clinic where staff members told “K” more about abortion procedures and risks as well as the options for life, “K” changed her mind! She even asked for a copy of her sonogram photo to give to her grandmother.
This young mom left the clinic with information on OBGYN support and agreed to make an appointment to treat her nausea and pre-natal care. Now, K is planning on taking parenting classes offered through the center, and she’s better prepared to handle her pregnancy and become a new mom!
Thank goodness for life-affirming centers like the one “K” visited who are well equipped to provide for and support young mothers.
