This is the story of a woman asking help in the Bronx office. She camed stressed and worried becase of her situation, but she left the office happier than ever, she said.
We will call her C. She is natural from Africa, ans she has been in Nyc only for a year. She was living with a boy, and everything was going excellent until she had the worst experience in her life. When she came to the office she wanted to have an abortion. We talked a long time about all things were not going well in her life. The exwife of his boyfriend had destroyed all C's clothes, by entering the house where she was living with the guy. Now, C is living with her aunt, but the condition is she cannot stay there if she is pregnant. After talking the test, we realized the result was positive. The situation was getting worse for C. but she was in the corect place to find the help she needs.
All she was worried about was because her uncle will kick out of the house where they were living together, and because hr boyfriend was not searching a place for her to live if she keep the baby.
But after she talked and cry her feelings, and after she saw the truth of the abortion in the video, she knew she didn't want to have an aborion, but sje had to assume that the decision of keeping the baby may carry problems to her. She stayed for an hour in a room, thinking and how to be strong to tell her boyfriend and her uncle her decision of parent the baby. meanwhile, I call the Home counsel to ask a place for C. where she can stay during her pregnancy. The day after our talk in the office she called me early in the morning. she had alredy talked with the Home Counsel and she will go there next week to visit her new home!
She also asked me for a job or something to do during this 9months, so I tries to help her by making some calls. Finally, we made an appointment with C. and another EMC's counseler who is helping C. with the job searching. C. was so excited and thankful for the help we gave her and for save her of having the abortion.
