Help Kevin & Jody get to Ireland

Donation protected
Our story begins on the internet. We are one of those lucky couples who met each other online and fell in love, despite being half a world apart. Kevin is from Ireland and didn't ever plan on moving to America...but he did and he did it for love. We were married at San Francisco City Hall and have spent the last year throwing all of our savings at the immigration process.
We haven't been able to save for anything and Kevin has not been able to visit home for the better part of a year, due to American rules about visas and not being allowed to work.
During that year, both of his parents spent time in the hospital, while he has been stuck so far away, without work and in travel limbo. It has been extremely hard on him.
We have finally passed the immigration tests and after almost a year, Kevin has the freedom to travel, but we have nothing left. In the end, the process has been so hard and expensive that we are exhausted. Given the closeness of his family and how hard it is to survive in the Bay Area these days, we have decided to move to Ireland.
Trying to move with no savings, only one income, and in less than three months is overwhelming and very, very difficult. We would love any help you could possibly give us to help us along on our continuing journey and new adventure. Please donate if you can
