My Pregnant Friend's Good Luck

Tweet

A good friend of mine is pregnant and became homeless due to domestic violence – her ex decided to throw her out of a car. She's been staying at an emergency shelter since she ran from him. Its a good place and has taken good care of her, but still, its a shelter. She's had things stolen from her and hasn't had anything but boxed food and canned fruit for seven weeks. Thankfully, I've been able to get her out at least once a week to go to the drop in mental health center we both attend. She got the great news last week that she's been accepted into a long term maternity home! This place specializes in taking in women who have escaped violent situations and she can stay there for up to a year. It is a dream come true for her. She will have her own room and bathroom, plus a chef cooks healthy meals for all the ladies there! I told her its like she's going to a fancy hotel. We are so lucky to have great places like this in the area!!!
