Story
The patient is a former client of ours, last seen over four months ago. She is currently five months pregnant and reached out to our center in urgent need of support. Previously, the father of the baby had been supportive while they were in a relationship. Unfortunately, due to the unhealthy nature of the relationship, he placed the patient in a difficult and unsafe situation, ultimately resulting in her being forced out of his home. Thankfully, her sister was able to offer her a temporary place to stay. The patient is currently working part-time, but she is struggling to make ends meet—particularly with her car payments and other essential expenses. She has expressed deep concern about how the ongoing stress is impacting both her well-being and that of her unborn child. Providing this assistance would reassure her that she is not alone and that support is available during this critical time. It would help relieve some of the fear and stress she is currently facing and allow her to focus on a healthier and more stable future for herself and her baby.
