The nurse is so easy going and nice. No one is rushing, all the attention is on you. The doctor was so easy to talk to. She came into the room where we were seated and allowed my daughter to tell her everyting that she wanted to talk about. My daughter is pretty independent but she wanted me there and they allowed her to have me there. I was able to stay with my daugher the whole entire time. All my questions were answered too. They had so much patience and not once did they seem like they wanted to move on to do other things. Everyone was so nice from the receptionist to the nurse to the doctor. When my daughter was having the procedure done they made her as comfortable as possible. She was given pain killers a hot compress and music to relax her while I held her hand. She was talking throughout the whole procedure. It was only a few minutes before it was all over. They didn't mind our curiosity and overabundance of questions which we were still asking during and after the procedure. They even showed us the little fleck of tissue that they look for in the extraction in order to know that they have aspirated the pregnancy. At the end my daughter was still in good spirits and talkative. They covered contraception options with her and listened to her needs based on her menstruation issues. We opted for the Depo Provera. I had to be realistic and make a responsible decision. I rather my daugher keep me in the loop with issues that she needs guidance with and advice in rather than for her to be on her own and get the wrong information. I am aware that if she seeks contraception on her own, by law at her age she does not need the consent of her parents. My daughter and I had a very long serious talk about what happened. We will also be having many more talks in the near future. I also plan to get her some counseling regarding dating and how to handle different situations. We decided that we don't ever want to go through that again and everything is going to be in place to avoid it. Deep inside I also feel grateful to Early Options because I know that should my daughter ever need them again, whether she needs me to be there or not, I know that she will be in good hands. I want to thank the the staff at Early Options for the caring support that we received at one of the most difficult times in our lives. Unlike the experience at planned parenthood the experince at Early Options allowed my daughter and I to grow closer together instead of farther apart.\r
