- So here is my story my name is Justin and I have a step son i raised since he was 2 months old well he was staying with his grandma in Tennessee which she had allot of health issues 24/7 oxygen and exc well on 12/25/25 at 8:30 am Christmas morning I get a phone call from my son abs instead of getting a good morning dad merry Christmas I love you I get a little boy who is crying hysterically and he can't even get a word out finally I calm him down enough to we're he is able to get a few words out and he says dad I went to wake grandma up so we can open presents and she is cold and blue and won't get up she is dead and 911 was called and she was pronounced dead on arrival. So I told my son i was sorry he had to be the one to walk in and see her like that. And to make things worse because they're is nothing immediate family in the same state they place my son in a group home under 24/7 suicide watch and it's now waiting to be placed in a foster home. I contacted the case worker and explained to her that I am not biologicaly jayden father i was his step dad since birth and that is father doesn't want nothing to do with him and vice versa and that i am the only one jayden calls dad but becauseI'm not biological father i have no rights. But because v i was with his mother for 13 years but not legally married common law says we're are legally married so i do have a chance of being able to visit my son every weekend and if have the chance of getting him back if I can get to Tennessee Get a job and a place to live and get my license and do they're classes and show proof of residence proof of income and the essentials he needs a bed, a dresser, clothes, sheets a blanket, food in the fridge,transportation to and from doctor visits then they will give me custody of my step son but I have no money to start i almost got enough for my his ticket and the little money I had left was just enough to buy a hammock i never been to Tennessee before I know nothing about it and I got no where to go when I get they're I will have no food no shelter no blanket just a suitcase with some clothes and a pair of work boots my son feels lost, and alone, and stranded in a state all by himself with nobody so I am gong to run to him and give him the security and comfort he desperately needs and deserves even if I have to suffer and struggle at least my son will know I am going to be there every weekend to visit and that I am doing everything I can. See me and my son are really big on the whole pay it forward I been giving to the needy since I was 9yrs old i grew up with my father in the woods literally most my life watching him and his drunk friends fight each other all day then passed out so I grew Up with homeless people my whole life since I was 9 and I just turned 39 so I been helping the homeless for 30yrs and my son is the same as me if not worse he is always asking he to stop so he can but them food and drinks he is always asking for money so when we pull up to s red light he can give them money and he gets so happy to see they're faces when he give to them it touches my heart every time to know I raised a young man to be so loving and caring and willing to help anybody he can he dunt care of age,race skin color it does not matter guy,girl if your in need he Wil try to help he is 14 but Wil give you the shirt of his back and come home talking about he needs more clothes cause he gave a kid that ripped his shirt so he gave him his i can't even be mad because he saw me do it so he started to do it to so I raised a very loving caring kid that needs his daddy to be there for him and all that boy wants in this world is to be with his dad.so im asking please if you can spare any change anything at all we dunt care if it's 5 cents or 5 dollars just anything you have just lying Around please donate it so we can reunite as a family again and if you can't spare any change please at please spare a prayer or 2 it will definitely gey paid forward thank you and May the good lord bless each and every one of you thanks from jayden an justin
