Help My Mom Start Over — A Second Chance at Life

My name is Josiah Christorhus, and I’m starting this fundraiser for the most important person in my life—my mom. I’ll also be documenting and sharing her full journey, so everyone who supports can see the real impact of what they’re helping make possible.

My mom has spent most of her life fighting a battle that many people never truly understand—addiction. It’s been a long and painful journey, not just for her, but for everyone who loves her. Despite everything she’s been through, one thing has never changed: her heart.

She is the kind of person who would give her last dollar to help someone else. She has always taken care of everyone around her, even when she was struggling herself. She’s loving, selfless, and strong in ways that don’t always get recognized. But addiction has held her back from living the life she truly deserves.

I’m creating this fundraiser because I want to give her a real chance at recovery—a fresh start in a completely new environment, away from the triggers and surroundings that have made it so hard for her to stay clean.

The goal is to raise enough money to:

* Cover a flight to Thailand

* Get her admitted into a professional treatment facility

* Support her during the early stages of recovery

* Help her transition into a healthier, more stable lifestyle in a peaceful environment

Thailand offers a unique opportunity for healing—far away from the environment she’s been stuck in for years. This isn’t just about getting sober; it’s about giving her a chance to rebuild her life, find peace, and finally focus on herself for once.

Addiction doesn’t define who she is. She’s still the same caring, generous person underneath it all. She just needs a real opportunity to break free from the cycle.

Any support—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this—means more than I can put into words. You’re not just helping someone recover; you’re helping someone get their life back.

I’ll be sharing updates along the way so you can follow her progress, her strength, and her transformation step by step.

Thank you for taking the time to read her story.
