Help to get parents through divorce

Donation protected

Hello all. I am Kyle Heller. For those of you that know me, you all know that I am a very proud person...borederline arrogant at times, other times not so borderline, so this is a situation and a thing that I am honestly not sure on how to go about. I'm not typically fond of asking for help on big matters. But I believe I am at a point where I am either going to break down and lose all sanity, or just give up on everything. And those that know me know that that says something.

To the point.  I am after as much help as I can get because I can use it. Well, my mother and I could use it. I am not one to typically air dirty laundry and stuff like that. But, here it goes. This is my life at the moment. Granted that some are going to say there are other sides of the story, but I am very confident in my perspective. Here we go, for real this time. 

Recently my parents lost their house and I lived with them. My father, in my opinion, primarily bailed. He helped get things moved out of the house and into storages. He helped getting me to and from work for a while, but recently has decided that he is no longer going to assist with that. I admit that he had helped with a few of the simple and minor things. However he has not helped with the more important issues. He has pushed off filing for bankruptcy and getting to doing the divorce proceedings, which he has pushed for. He has refused to communicate with my mother to handle all of these important things. My mother has tried to communicate with him, but he tends to ignore things he doesn't want to hear. All the while my mother even gave up her tax return to assist with his taxes, after having been separated for a few months.  And not a few texts later, he tells her he is removing her from the insurance after she told him about a severe illness, that at this point I would rather not disclose. I am not trying to make my father out to be a monster or a bad guy here, I am just portraying things as I have witnessed them.   Currently, my mother and I are working on going through the stuff in the storages to get it sold and out of the storages. I find myself in a situation where I feel as though I am cleaning up my father's mess. I am helping go through the stuff from their marriage. He claims that he doesn't want any of the stuff in them, but that doesn't mean the stuff doesn't need gone through. To me a marriage is a union, and everything is half of both parties. To me, my father is trying to walk away from this marriage with as little responsibility as possible. At any rate, things are very hard particularly for my mother, whom I am trying to help as much as I can, and in doing so times are particularly difficult for me as well. Any and all financial assistance is incredibly appreciated. There is more drama and things that involve my sister that add to the troubles. 

My goal with this is to really, help with all the things I can manage to help with, but primarily it would be going towards legal fees and such to get this bankruptcy for my mother dealt with and to pay for the divorce proceedings so we can all move forward and be done with this stuff that is dragging everyone down. For myself, I am hoping to make as much progress towards getting myself my own home and my own sense of security so I can move on with my life as well. And hopefully to afford getting back to schooling to really find work in the animal field, which is one of my true passions. 

The time frame is as much as possible as soon as possible to really get through this difficult time. Both for me and for my family. 

 

It means a lot to me, obviously. I have a strong set of beliefs and a lot of what is going on is very much against my beliefs, but because I believe in family, I find myself stuck trying to help my mother in a situation where I see my father as having walked away from his family and making things as difficult as possible for his family and putting crucial things off as much as possible, hurting his family. I am a firm believer in marriage. That when you get married you don't walk away. You work through things, you argue to get through things. You don't give up on the person you promised your life to. However, my father has done just that. He has tried to walk away without any responsibility, and that is flat out wrong. 

 

I could never begin to express the gratitude I would have. Every bit of help I get, we get, means the world to me because it is progress towards finally being able to move forward with my life, and not be held back by this anchor of a family that has crumbled around me. To me the help opens up the hope for perhaps my future.
