Hi everyone,

This is not easy for me to do—asking for help has never been in my nature. I’ve always taken pride in being strong, independent, and self-sufficient. But right now, I’m in a situation where I need to lean on others to help me protect what matters most: my son, Kayce.

I’m currently facing an extremely high-conflict legal battle with my ex, Josh, who is attempting to have Kayce removed from my care and move him four hours away from everything he knows and loves. Josh has gone to alarming lengths in his efforts to manipulate the system and harass me. He has stalked me, harassed me, hacked my personal accounts, and even went so far as to file a false report with DSS—putting my job and financial stability at serious risk. This was not only traumatic but also a direct attack on my ability to provide for my son, who depends on me completely.

Every choice I make in life is with Kayce’s best interests at heart. I pay for everything—our rent, childcare, groceries, utilities, and all other bills—on my own. I recently used the last of my emergency savings just to secure an apartment for us and cover all the initial move-in expenses. Now, with my legal costs piling up, I’m out of resources. My attorney has quoted me $6,000 to proceed, but because this will likely go to trial, the final cost could be even higher.

Kayce is my world. Anyone who knows me knows how devoted I am to being the best mother I can be. I’ve always worked hard to make sure he has everything he needs—safety, love, stability, and a future. But I can’t fight this battle alone.

I’m humbly asking for help covering my court costs and legal fees so I can keep Kayce safe and continue building a stable, loving life for him. Every single dollar makes a difference, and every share helps. If you can give, thank you.

To protect my privacy and the integrity of my case, I kindly ask that you do not share this fundraiser publicly on social media. Josh has a history of monitoring my activity and obtaining information to use against me. If you’d like to support or share, please do so privately via direct message or text. Your discretion and support mean everything to me and Kayce. Thank you so much for understanding.
