Hi, my name is Kate. I’m a mother to a beautiful 10.5 month old daughter, and right now we’re facing a crisis.
After enduring years of emotional and psychological abuse in my marriage, I’m finally trying to break free for both myself and my daughter. I’ve taken the steps to begin the divorce process, but I’ve been met with unexpected financial barriers that are threatening to leave us without a home or legal protection.
I’m asking for help covering:
• A trauma informed divorce attorney ($7,000 for the retainer)
• Reinstating my nursing license so I can return to the workforce and provide long-term stability (hopefully a remote clinical position so I don’t have to find childcare, yet).
• Medical care and treatments for ongoing autoimmune and chronic conditions (another reason why I need a flexible remote position).
• Assistance with my mortgage and legal home buyout, so we don’t lose the roof over our heads (four months behind and facing foreclosure)
I’ve always believed in healing forward, and I fully intend to pay this help forward. Once I’m back on my feet, I plan to create support systems for other mothers in crisis. I know I’m not the only one who’s ever been stuck in this place.
If you feel moved to donate or share, please know that every little bit gets us closer to safety. You’re not just helping one person, you’re helping a little girl grow up with safety, peace, and possibility.
With so much gratitude,
Kate
