A Honest Need for Help
Donation protected
Trying to stay afloat during a time of need is a challenge and there are times my wife and I feel like giving up. As a husband and father there are times I feel like a failure for not being able to fully provide for them. I am currently a caregiver for my 8 year old daughter who is disabled. Her name is Milan and I love her more than she will ever realize because of her disability. Milan has MRCP- mental retardation cerebral palsy. She also has a seizure disorder, hearing loss, and is autistic. Although she cannot talk we have a special language and I get her. Milan's mental issues and disabilities caused my wife to go into a state of depression and forced me to take care of my family with no support. I have tried to be strong and do it on my own but I'm at the point where I can't let pride get in the way of making sure my wife and kids are taken care of. I need help, I need this money to bring our bills up to date and buy the kids clothes and shoes especially the ones in school. I have borrowed from people and overdrawn my bank account. My wife and I were in the middle of creating a company but she became ill and it forced us to put a hold on the idea. I hope one day we can start it up again because it would help our faith and others as well. I hope everyone understands I'm not a man begging for a handout but I'm a father asking for help, I'm a husband who loves his wife and I'm a person in need. Please help me raise the funds to remove some of my financial burden. Thank you.
