When I found out I was pregnant, I was 34 years old. I was just splitting from my husband who was in and out of court. I had moved in with my mom and my fourteen-year-old son.
I was not in the best place.
When I found out I was pregnant, I felt like I had been hit with a ton of bricks. I was overwhelmed and a little angry. I came to Care Net because my doctor had recommended them when I told him I wanted to have an abortion.

Things have changed since that first day I came to Care Net. My husband and I are currently in the process of working things out under the same roof. I am having the baby now…where before I thought I was 100% sure that this was not something to even consider.
I am also not so afraid of sitting down with a complete stranger and asking for help.

My daughter is a year old and I am still able to call my counselor at Care Net if ever I am in need. I have come to think of my [client advocate] as a counselor & mentor because I know I can always call her just to talk to her about issues or problems I may be having in my life.
