Hi friends,

This is a vulnerable thing to ask, but I’m reaching out for help covering the urgent legal costs I’m facing. I’m currently involved in an active legal process related to personal safety. Due to the sensitive nature of the case, I’m unable to share specifics publicly—but what I can say is that this process has become necessary for my long-term safety, healing, and peace.

In order to move forward, I need to retain a qualified attorney. The initial retainer is $3,000, which will allow them to begin representing me immediately. This step is essential to ensure that my case is handled thoroughly and correctly.

As someone living with chronic illness and disability, I have limited financial resources, and this situation has placed immense strain on me. I’ve done everything I can to navigate this on my own, but this part I cannot do without support.

If you’re able to contribute—whether $5 or $50—it would mean the world to me. Every bit helps.

If you know me personally, please understand that it’s taking all of my energy to pursue this, and I may not be able to respond to questions right now. Just knowing you’re in my corner is enough.

Thank you for being part of my community. Your care and support are making it possible for me to stand up for myself in a system that is hard to face alone.

With all my heart,

Rachel
