Today I
have gone to The Bronx Center with Ana. In this Center we try to help the
girls with crisis pregnancy doing free testing, ultrasounds, counseling and
referrals. Today Ana and I were doing counseling to three girls:
The first
one spoke Spanish so this it made easier for us. She wanted to do a pregnancy
test to know if she was pregnant. We spoke with her and asked some questions
about her life. When we started, she said that if she would be pregnant she
couldn´t have the baby. The pregnancy test was positive. After she watched the
video about the abortion risks she changed her mind, and she told us that she
needed more time to think in her future decision.
The second
one was a young girl, she had 18 years old and she wanted to know if she was
pregnant too. In this occasion the test was negative. She told us that she
wouldn´t have the baby because she is going to start the university the next
year. We tried to convince her but for her it was more important her life than
her baby. She said that she was very young to have a baby.
The last
one came with her boyfriend. She wanted to know if she was pregnant. In this
occasion we didn´t need to put her the video because she wanted to have the
baby. Finally the test was negative.
