A Year of Broken Hope: Keeping Our Home and Health.

We are reaching out to our community, friends, and anyone who reads this with a heavy heart and a desperate plea for help. This past year was supposed to be our year. It was the year we finally saw the light at the end of a long, dark tunnel, only to have that light extinguished by a cascade of devastating events.

The Hope We Held On To:

For years, my wife and I have dreamed of starting a family & our own Business. After being told pregnancy might never happen , the joy we felt when she finally became pregnant was indescribable. Simultaneously, i finally finding doctors who were seriously addressing my long-standing health battle with AFib (Atrial Fibrillation). My wife had a job she loved & we opened our own online business. We were full of hope, and we truly believed we were finally on the path to the life we always wanted.

The Crushing Reality:

In a matter of months, our dreams shattered and our stability vanished.

Two Heartbreaking Losses: Our pregnancies ended in two miscarriages. The emotional toll of this loss was immense, but we tried to support each other and keep going.

A Sudden Health Crisis: Soon after the second miscarriage my wife faced a sudden, emergency gallbladder removal surgery. The procedure and subsequent, unexpected complications led to many more missed days of work for her.

The Loss of Her Job: Due to the extensive time she had to take off because of the miscarriages, surgery and recovery, she suddenly lost the job she loved. Our main source of income disappeared overnight.

My AFIB Escalated: My AFIB, which we hoped was starting to be controlled, escalated dramatically. I now suffers from severe episodes 1-2 times a week and I’m struggling with debilitating dizziness. This makes it nearly impossible for me to work consistently or even function normally most days without my wife’s help.

The Struggle for Survival:

Without my wife’s income and with my health crisis limiting my ability to work, we have fallen desperately behind on our bills. Every day is a struggle just to keep the lights on and manage the other bills.

We have tried every avenue for assistance, but because we do not have children—a cruel twist considering our miscarriages—we’ve been told by programs that we are simply not a priority.

We are now facing eviction. We have less than two weeks before we lose our home and everything we have left. We are terrified of being homeless with our pets while simultaneously dealing with serious medical needs.

How Your Donation Will Help:

We are not asking for a hand-out; we are asking for a chance to get back on our feet and focus on our health so we can return to being contributing members of our community.

Your generous donation will go immediately toward:

Rent & Utilities: To stop our immediate eviction and keep the lights on.

Basic Needs: To help us buy groceries, pet needs and necessary medication while I urgently search for a new job.

Every single dollar brings us closer to keeping a roof over our heads and give us a chance to keep going.

Please, if you can spare anything, you will be saving us from becoming homeless during the worst crisis of our lives.

If you cannot donate, please consider sharing our story. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us a chance to breathe and find our hope again.

With Sincere Gratitude,
