My name is Patrick, and I’m reaching out for help for myself, my wife, and our two daughters. Right now, we’re living in a hotel, paying week by week, after a series of hardships turned our lives upside down. I lost my job, and with it, we lost our home, my wife’s car, and even our storage unit that held all of our personal belongings—including precious items from loved ones we’ve lost.

On top of that, my wife was recently diagnosed with a burst blood vein in her neck. She can’t work until she heals, and because she’s diabetic, her recovery is taking longer than expected. If she moves around too much or bends down for too long, she gets dizzy and suffers from headaches. That’s left me as the only one working, doing everything I can to keep us afloat. Now, my truck has broken down and needs repairs, but I simply don’t have the money to fix it.

We’re doing our best to stay strong, but times are getting harder and harder. Any support you can give will help us get into a new home, cover our hotel costs, and repair my truck so I can keep working and supporting my family. Thank you so much for reading our story and for any help you can offer. We just need a little help to try to get in a better place for my family.
