From Burnout to Brighter Days: Support Tara's Recovery

Hello friends, family, and kind strangers,

I am reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support. In October 2024, my wife was forced to take a leave of absence from her job due to severe burnout, anxiety, and depression. Around the same time, we experienced the profound loss of a miscarriage, which has deeply affected both of us.

Since then, my wife has been bravely fighting to recover, facing significant mental health challenges. Unfortunately, our situation took a turn for the worse when her claim for short-term disability benefits was denied, despite her ongoing struggle. This news has caused a significant setback in her mental health, and I am deeply concerned for her well-being.

My wife is a dedicated human services professional who has spent her career tirelessly helping others in their times of need. She has worked with vulnerable populations, providing support, counseling, and resources to those facing difficult circumstances. Her compassion, empathy, and unwavering commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of others have touched countless individuals and families.

She is also currently pregnant (thank the heavens), and the stress and uncertainty of our situation are not only affecting my wife but also our unborn baby. As her partner, I have been doing my best to maintain our household and support her through these challenging times. However, the mounting bills and the threat of losing our way of life are becoming overwhelming. We are now in a position where we urgently need your help.

Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in our lives. Your support will go directly towards covering expenses and helping us stay afloat during this difficult period. We are incredibly grateful for any assistance you can provide.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity.
