Abortion in Rizal

Light at the end of the tunnel

Dear Alex and Sir John

Good day!

First of all, I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to both of you.
You really give me and my girlfriend “the light at the end of the tunnel”.

Our decision to end her pregnancy so far is the most challenging and
heartbreaking event in our lives. That is why we are very thankful that
individuals like you are very much willing to help people like us – people
who are not ready to become parents – regardless of the reason.

 

Below this line is our reflection:
—————————————————————————————————–

 

To the readers/visitors of Project 486, if you are reading this. This might
be the sign.

 

Felt something different

Around the first week of November, our journey started when my girlfriend
felt something different in her body. She started to extremely crave sour
and salty food to the point na lagi na lang siyang nag papabili saakin ng
mango or santol. By then, we thought those signs were just her normal
appetite, impulsive kasi yung appetite niya minsan.

After a week, while she was at work, she experienced a headache and nag
start na din siyang maduwal at magsuka, the good thing is that the company
nurse let her rest in their sleeping quarters. Also, hindi din nasundan
yung pagsusuka niya so we thought na fatigue yung reason of her headache.

A week has passed, and she is already 1-week delayed. Due to our busy work
schedule lagi namin nakakalimutan bumili ng pregnancy test kit. We also
experienced several pregnancies scare din before so we really thought that
it is one of those. For those who might be thinking if hindi ba kami nag
iingat when we do it, my GF is taking contraceptive pills. However, last
October or November, hindi na siya nakapag take.

Going back, come December 1, she is already more than 2 weeks delayed. We
decided to take a PT. She handover the result to me and it is clearly a TWO
SOLID LINE.

 

Positive PT and mixed emotions

At that moment, we don’t really know what to feel. Mixed emotions. As her
partner, there is a part of me na happy since magiging father na ako but at
the same time, mas lamang yung feeling na baka hindi namin siya maalagaan
or mapanindigan.

We contemplated and discussed it over and over again. And then, we decided
to end her pregnancy. My GF is still young and she really wanted to focus
on her career and education, she doesn’t want to disappoint her parents as
well, which I really understand. Plus, financially, kahit na may stable
work kami parehas, we still feel na our financial capacity is not enough to
raise a kid on top of the monthly bills and other expenses. In short ayaw
namin na umabot sa point na iaasa namin sa family niya or family ko yung
gastusin. We want to save first and plan for our future.

 

Questionable meds from the first online seller

A few days after the PT result, I started to look for ways how to end her
pregnancy. Ang daming pages and individuals na nagkalat sa Facebook. I came
across this one seller that offers cheap abortion pills (roughly around
3,500) I read the so-called reviews and testimonials with pics. Since mura
lang naman and seems legit, I availed.

Nakita ko rin sa Google comment section of an OB clinic yung link ng
project486 website. I visited the site, check the testimonials, and sent an
email.

So at this point, I already have the pills from the online seller. So I
wasn’t really expecting na magrereply yung project486.

So to be sure, on December 7, we decided to ask an OB how many weeks and
days na bang pregnant ang girlfriend ko. The AOG (Assessment of Gestational
Age) is about* 6 weeks and 1 day.*

Going back to the pill that I ordered from the online seller, she told us
that the pills that we ordered are good for up to 7 weeks of pregnancy.
Upon receiving the pills, she then sent instructions on what to prepare
before taking those pills, and to be honest, I am not really convinced with
all those preparation or methods since I also did my research online. I
also checked the so-called Mifepristone tablets are repacked naka lagay
lang sa ziplock na maliit! While the Misoprostol brand name is written in
Arabic. Simply put, I don’t trust the medications that the seller gave us.
At this point, I am very frustrated, despite the testimonials from that FB
Page, I am very hesitant and I don’t want my GF to take those pills since I
am not sure what will be the effect of those pills.

Since I don’t trust the medication and the preparation procedure by that
online seller. I kept on searching. Nine (9) days have passed, wala pa din
akong makitang reliable. I am very desperate at that time. So I checked my
email hoping na meron ng reply yung project486 I checked my email and found
the their response as SPAM folder. They responded pala last December 6! It
was a relief, pero nakakapanghinayang kasi nakabili na ako ng pill before
ko pang makita yung response nila. To make it short, I followed all their
instructions and I gave them all the necessary details that they need.
Then, they assigned us to Sir John, our Consultant.

 

Professional and quality service

Sir John is very professional and accommodating. If we talk about quality
service, Sir John could be one of the best definitions of it!

He oriented us and walk us through the procedures before actually sending
us the details and price of the meds. Overall, the medications are really
affordable (a bit higher as compared to FB scammers) but RELIABLE. Kung
tutuusin, hindi namin inaansahan ng GF ko na ganun yung service ng
project486 well-monitored talaga kami.

December 17 – the medicine arrived on the same day that we ordered it. Very
discreet packaging and sealed and secured yung medicines.

December 17 na din yung first day ng procedure. I guided my GF to strictly
follow the instruction of Sir John. On this day, she took her first
Mifepristone. Wala naman siyang side effect na naramdaman, except that
nagugutom lang talaga siya due to light meals.

December 18 – She took her second Mifepristone – again no side effect
except sa gutom.

December 19 – THE BIG DAY! We did it sa apartment ko since ako lang naman
mag isa yung nakatira, I bought everything na kakailanganin for the
procedure. I made sure that my GF is comfortable din. And you know what is
best? Sir John is always there kahit sa text message lang. He consistently
and timely gave us instructions on what to do.

Starting from the vaginal insertion of the Misoprostol – This is easy lalo
na kapag sinunod mo naman yung instruction ni Sir John. What’s not easy
about this is the side effect after few hours. My GF is really in pain. nag
start sa 2/10 pain sa puson niya all the way to 11/10 it is a roller
coaster of pain, mawawala, then babalik, not to mention that I need to
guide her and keep her in her pillow maneuver position which is hard for
her since meron siyang mild thoracic scoliosis. It is indeed one of the
longest 4-8 hrs in my life. Ang hirap makita yung GF mo na in pain. Pero
she is very strong. Tiniis niya yung sakit. Wala akong magawa but to
comfort her, and apply warm compress sa puson niya as instructed by Sir
John.

After few hours, nakatulog siya and nag subside naman yung pain thanks to
Ibuprofen 400mg.

 

Close monitoring until completion of procedure

After a few hours and as instructed, I inserted in her buccal cavity the
3rd and 4th Misoprostol. Medyo nahirapan din kami dito since dry na yung
mouth niya so hindi masyadong natunaw yung medicine. Sir John, as always,
is always there to modify the procedure. After that, my GF swallowed the
remnants of the 3rd and 4th Misoprostol.

A few minutes after that, nakaramdam yung gf ko na there is something
flowing out of her vagina, I checked her diaper it is just a combination of
blood and water. No signs of Product of Conception yet at this point.

Next, I inserted the 5th and 6th Misoprostol in her buccal. At this point,
2/10 na lang yung pain niya sa puson. Medyo nakahinga ako ng maluwag
knowing na less na yung pain na nararamdaman niya.

During the entire procedure, every time there is a discharge, I make sure
that I will inform Sir John and he is very responsive kahit late night na.

Around 3am, pwede nang kumain and uminom yung GF ko. Habang kumakain, she
suddenly felt na may lumabas sa kanya, this time, she cried, and I know na
alam niya kung ano yun.

 

It is our PoC. It is Zero (we named our PoC as
Zero). She cried, and I cried too. I tried to be strong from the very
beginning para hindi niya ma feel yung added stress. I need to be strong
for her as well.

As Instructed, I sent the PoC’s image to Alex and they confirmed that my GF
is no longer pregnant.

To all the readers who are hesitant and don’t trust the project486 yet,
that’s okay, normal lang lalo na napakaraming scammers nowadays. However,
may this testimonial ease your hesitations. Nakakakaba but it is a test of
your resolve.

Once again, thank you Alex and Sir John.

We will be more careful next time.

Sincerely,

V and L
