My husband left me and my kids financially destitute after I expressed that I wanted a divorce. He said it's no longer his problem, and our mortgage is due in four days. He promised to pay my car payment in June as he does every month because we are completely reliant on him for all bills. Upon deciding that I didn't want to be together anymore, despite me having no income or way to make the amount of money we need in the time necessary, he's decided it's no longer his issue and he doesn't care.

I can't believe I'm having to do this, but for my children, I will do anything. I can't lose my car and I am facing repossession. I also need money for the mortgage, so that I have time to get a good-paying job and take over all of the bills. Men around the country do this to women every day. Make no mistake about it, this is a form of control, which is a form of abuse.

I'm hoping that by reaching out for help, I'm showing women all over the country that it's okay to be vulnerable and still stick by what you said you were going to do even when the outcome is scary and unknown. Please help me navigate this new and very uncertain time with a donation. Even one or two dollars helps. If you can't help with a donation, please pray for me and please share this link.
