Help a Dedicated Mom Overcome Health and Financial Stress
Donation protected
I’m reaching out because I really need some help. Life has thrown some serious challenges my way, and I’m feeling overwhelmed. I live with type 1 brittle diabetes, stage 3 kidney disease, PTSD, and I’ve just been diagnosed with MS. After 14 years away from work, I finally started a job again, which is a huge step for me. My employer has been incredibly understanding about my health struggles, but I’m still finding it tough to keep up with my hours.
Every day feels like a battle, and I’m pushing myself to the limits just to provide for my kids. It’s like every time I think I’ve got a handle on things, something else comes along to knock me down. I recently went through a painful divorce after seven years with someone I thought I knew well, only to discover a side of them I never expected. That has left me in a really tough financial spot.
Right now, I’m facing a mountain of bills: $3,000 for my lawyer and $2,000 for my mortgage on top of everyday expenses. I’m doing everything I can, but it’s hard. My health is taking a hit, and all I want is to create a stable, happy life for my children. They deserve that, and I’ll do whatever it takes to make it happen, but I can’t do it alone. Any support would mean the world to me. Thank you for listening.
