Hello John,
If you have ever felt a whirlwind of emotions all at once … then you can relate to a mom like “Giselle.” That’s how most moms facing an unexpected pregnancy feel when they find out they’re pregnant.
Terrified. Mad. Sad. Happy.
All the emotions that you could feel, Giselle felt within a moment upon discovering she was pregnant.
With no place to call home, no job, and lacking any support, the prospect of raising a child seemed impossible. She was already a mother of one and understood the demands ahead – resources, time, and energy.
It wasn’t that she didn’t love being a mom; she just didn’t see how she could be a good enough mom given her circumstances. And for not only one child, but now two.
Deep down, she knew she needed help.
It took a lot of courage before Giselle picked up the phone to call. It was as though a crippling voice of fear gripped her and told her not to reach out for help. Her mind had been made up for so long on having an abortion. But unsure of the future and growing wearier by the day, she eventually dialed the number to Human Coalition.
