First and foremost we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read our story. My fiancé (Gavin Skinner) and I never in a million years thought we would reach out for financial help and it has been a very difficult decision to do so but at this point we are desperate. My Grandmother who was the light of my life passed away in 2010. I lived with her for 5 years before her passing and have had the gift of being able to continue to live in her home all these years after her death. My home is on an old farm that has been in the family for over 50 years so you can imagine the memories and hard work we have put into keeping this home going. My grandmother extended the offer for me to move in during a very dark time in my life and quite honestly it pushed me to do things I never imagined I could do. I have struggled with health issues since I was a child and she was the one who taught me to continue to put one foot in front of the other. I am now in a situation where I’m going to lose my home. This house and property was left to my Mother and Uncle and we have to buy my Uncle out in order to save our home. Unfortunately, we don’t have all of the money to buy him out and will lose our home within a month if we can’t find a way to get help somehow. I can’t begin to explain the devastation, heart ache, and suffering Gavin and I are feeling. I feel as if I'm loosing not just a house but also a home that has surrounded me with so much love and hope even on my darkest of days. I have a reason to wake up in the morning and tend to the garden, the chickens and the property. The thought of that being taken away seems far too much for my heart to bear. I know my Grandmother and Grandfather would want us to keep it in the family. We ask you from the very deepest part of our hearts if you could please help us save our home. I never thought I would have to ask for help like this and if there were any other way I would make that happen but unfortunately this is our last hope. I can promise that my fiancé and I will continue to pay if forward for the rest of our lives and that is not a promise we take lightly! I only wish that I had the words to explain just how much this would mean to us. Please feel free to ask questions and again I thank you so much for your support!
