My husband and I have faced some of the most challenging times of our lives over the past two years. In January 2023, we lost custody of our boys, which was devastating for our family. Since then, we have worked tirelessly to turn things around—completing treatment, attending parenting classes, and remaining sober since February 2023. Despite our progress, we lost our housing in September 2023 and have been homeless ever since. I’ve continued working as a caregiver, but it hasn’t been enough to secure stable housing or save enough to get back on our feet.

Recently, our situation became even more urgent when my husband was hospitalized and has spent the last month in the ICU. He needs a safe place to recover from major surgery, and we have only a short window to establish housing so our family can be together again. We have nine months left to reunite with our boys, and just two months to find a home where my husband can heal.

The funds raised will go directly toward securing housing, paying off eviction debt from damages to our last home, purchasing basic furniture, and covering medical expenses for my husband’s recovery. Any support means we can reunite our family as we’ve been apart for far too long. We don’t want to lose our precious boys for good, and your help will make it possible for us to care for each other and move forward together.
