Hello pals as you may or may not know I had a lot of issues with my past employer. You may have seen me struggle with the symptoms of PTSD which kept me on STD leave since September. I've struggled a lot of financial setback because of this diagnosis, the symptoms, and complete lack of support from my insurance and employer. I had lost income replacement in February but my amazing father stepped in early May to keep me housing secure and food secure.

You may have seen me change. You'd see my tears, my incontrollable fears, the isolation, me compressing myself into something tiny, something almost invisible; you saw me wanting to disappear. You may have seen this struggle first hand. And I apologize that you had to meet this Bubs.

But YOU chose to love that Bubs. You pulled them out of the compressing. You filled them back up with as much Bubsness as you could harness in yourselves!!!!

THE ONLY REASON I AM HERE - RIGHT NOW - even willing to ask for this support is because YOU -MY FRIENDS, FAMILY AND COMMUNITY have gotten me here. You have kept me alive, indignant, and brave. It has been a lot of work to convince myself I am even worthy of all this love; I'm worthy of this fight. But I KNOW you believe I am! I know I WILL NOT fight this alone. ️️ We fight together.

Now, I'm relying on you all once again to help me with the first step towards any sort of justice. Unfortunately, it's a little more than a cookie or a forehead kiss this time

My hope is that if you can each give a small amount, we can together collect enough to secure this lawyer.

With that,

*stands on tippy toes to give forehead kiss*

I love you ❤️‍

xoxo Bubs
