Zoey Thought She Was Scheduling an Abortion

Zoey Thought She Was Scheduling An Abortion

When Zoey reached out to our clinic, Alcove Health, she believed she was scheduling an appointment at an abortion clinic. She was young, overwhelmed, and facing a decision she never imagined having to make.

“When I found out I was pregnant, I was 19, living very worldly. I felt sad, emotional, and all alone. I came to Alcove thinking it was an abortion clinic.”

From the moment she walked through the doors, her experience began to shift.

“While there, Jenn immediately comforted me. She listened to my story. The nurses, Denise and Kinta, were comforting and made me feel very welcomed.”

What Zoey found was not pressure or judgment, but help, hope, and space to breathe.

“Alcove really changed my perspective on my pregnancy and my life. I went when I was 3 weeks ready to terminate my pregnancy, and now I’m 7 months preparing to give birth in 12 more weeks”.

“Everything happens for a reason. God knew what he was doing when he brought me to Alcove, and now I’m expecting a baby boy.”

Today, her gratitude turns outward, toward the mission and the lives still waiting to be reached.

“Keep changing lives and saving little innocent babies like mine.”

That is exactly what we intend to keep doing!

Zoey’s story is a powerful reminder that when compassion meets crisis, both the mother’s and the child’s lives are forever changed.

The Abortion Pill Isn’t a Decision. It’s a Default.

The abortion pill isn’t a decision.
It’s a default.

It’s marketed as a personal choice—fast, discreet, handled alone.
No clinic. No conversation. No one asking how she’s really doing.

When a woman fears she might be pregnant, her phone quickly fills with abortion pill ads promising a solution that feels simple and private. Within hours, pills can be ordered and shipped to her door.

Unless someone steps in first.

Recently, a young woman, let’s call her Emily, found herself in that moment. She was scared, overwhelmed, and convinced abortion was her only option. She had already begun searching online when she saw an ad for our clinic, Alcove Health, and decided to call.

That call changed everything.

Instead of isolation, Emily found personal care.

Candra answered the phone with gentleness and helped her schedule an appointment right away. When Emily arrived, Jenn sat with her, listened without judgment, and gave her space to breathe.

And in the ultrasound room, Kinta showed Emily the truth, the life growing in her womb. In that quiet moment, it became real. And Emily wasn’t alone.

Today, she is continuing her pregnancy and is connected to ongoing support because a compassionate team met her in those critical hours, before a default decision was made.

At Care Net Peninsula, we fight the clock because hours matter. Your year-end gift helps ensure we answer the phone, offer same-day care, and walk with women when fear is loudest.

Your gift breaks the timeline.

This year-end, will you give generously so more women like Emily receive time, truth, help, and hope, rooted in relationship, not isolation?

Your Year-End Gift Can Break the Timeline

The abortion pill isn’t a decision. It’s a default.

The moment a woman fears she’s pregnant, her phone becomes her counselor: “Abortion pill. Cheap. Fast. No clinic needed.” Within hours, pills can be shipped.

Unless someone steps in first.

At Care Net Peninsula, we fight the clock. Because when you’re saving a life, hours matter. Your year-end gift ensures we’re there to answer her call.

Let me show you her timeline the way she lived it.

HOUR 1 – SHOCK

I don’t feel right. Nausea. Anxiety. A knot in my stomach. I keep putting off taking the test because if I don’t know, maybe it isn’t real.

But finally, I look. Two lines. My heart drops. My worst fear is real. I have to be about 9 weeks pregnant.

HOUR 2 – PANIC SEARCH

I grab my phone and start Googling. Before I can even finish typing, ads like this flood my screen. It doesn’t feel like choices, it feels like pressure.

THANKS TO YOU, WE INVEST HEAVILY IN GOOGLE ADS TO FIGHT FOR LIFE ONLINE.

HOUR 3 – A PRICE ON LIFE

I click on a website. I expect the cost to stop me. Instead, I see something shocking: it’s cheaper than I thought, as low as $150 and if I can’t afford it, they’ll “help me pay for it.”

HOUR 4 – NO HUMAN REQUIRED

I start a form. No doctor. No counselor. Not even a voice on the phone. Just answer some questions … and the pills are on their way.

YOUR YEAR-END GIFT BREAKS THE TIMELINE!

HOUR 24 – DELIVERED

The next day, a package shows up on my doorstep. Plain. Unmarked. No questions asked.

HOUR 25 – FIRST PILL

I open the package. I swallow the first pill — Mifepristone. It blocks the hormone that sustains my baby’s life.

There’s no turning back*.

*EXCEPT YOU CAN! LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ABORTION PILL REVERSAL PROGRAM HERE.

HOUR 48 – SECOND PILL

28-48 hours later, I take the second pill — Misoprostol. It’s actually 2 to 4 pills that dissolve in my mouth. I repeat this process two more times over the next 6 hours. 

HOUR 49+ – ALONE IN THE AFTERMATH

The cramping intensifies. The bleeding becomes heavy, sometimes severe. I’m passing the remains of my baby … by myself. 

What they don’t tell you is that for many women, the pain and bleeding become so intense that they end up in the ER. Research shows roughly 1 in 10 abortion pill patients require emergency care. That could be mine.

This timeline is devastating. A woman goes from fear to an abortion pill in hours: alone, scared, and pressured by the world to make the panic go away. But that is not where her story has to end. Your generosity breaks into her timeline. It gives her something the abortion industry never will: time, truth, and someone who sees her. When you give, you help her reach us first. You help us answer the phone on the first ring. You help us offer same-day and next-day appointments. You make space for hope, before pills arrive at her door.

This year-end, would you make your most generous gift so we can be there in those critical hours? You can make your gift at the button below. Your gift breaks the timeline. Your gift saves a life!
