I Never Ask for Help....But I Need It Not for My Son

Everything I do is for my son—and right now, doing what’s best for him means asking for help, no matter how hard that is.

If you know me, you know this isn’t easy for me to do. I’ve always been independent. I’ve always figured things out on my own, no matter how hard life got. Asking for help is not something I ever thought I would have to do—especially like this.

But right now, I’m facing a situation bigger than I can handle alone.

I’m currently in the middle of an ongoing legal process regarding what is best for my son. What should be a straightforward focus on his well-being has become a long and emotionally draining situation. Instead of being able to focus solely on raising him in a stable, healthy environment, much of my time, energy, and resources are being spent navigating this process.

This has been not only emotionally exhausting—it has also become financially overwhelming. Legal fees are continuing to add up, and I’m reaching a point where continuing this process is becoming incredibly difficult without support.

I am doing this because I believe, with everything in me, that my son deserves the best possible life—and I will never stop advocating for him.

As hard as it is for me to ask, I truly need help right now.

If you’re able to contribute, even a small amount, it will go directly toward legal expenses so I can continue advocating for my son. If donating isn’t possible, sharing this would mean just as much.

This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do—not the situation itself, but asking for help to keep going.

Thank you for standing with me during this time. It means more than I can express.

With gratitude,

Tasha
