One Step Forward After Losing Everything…

Donation protected

Hi, my name is Hailey. I’m 26 years old, and I had the absolute honor of loving the most amazing woman—Chandler. She was everything I could have ever hoped for in a partner and so much more. Chandler wasn’t just an incredible wife; she was a devoted mother, a selfless friend, and an unforgettable family member.

On March 27th of this year, I lost Chandler to stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. She was my entire world, and her passing has left me completely heartbroken. On top of navigating this grief, I now find myself facing a serious financial crisis. By the end, we had very little—and now, I don’t even have a stable place to call home.

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to have friends who’ve shown up for me in every way they can—offering love, a couch to sleep on, and open hearts. But as grateful as I am, it’s not a permanent solution.

I’m doing everything I can to move forward. I recently started a new job, and I’m beyond thankful for that. But even with it, I’m struggling to afford the basics—things like food for myself and my dog, and a safe place where we can begin to heal.

This fundraiser is my attempt to get back on my feet—to find stable housing, cover essentials, and make it through this devastating chapter. Every donation will go toward bills, transportation, groceries, and other immediate needs.

Growing up—and through so many hard lessons—I convinced myself that I had to handle life on my own. That asking for help meant weakness. But I’ve come to learn the hard way that sometimes, surviving means letting others in. I’m exhausted, overwhelmed, and honestly, I can’t do this alone anymore.

So… screw it. I need help, y’all.

Thank you—truly—for taking the time to read this. Whether you’re able to support me financially, emotionally, or simply by sharing this page, it means more than I can say. Every bit helps, and I’m just trying to stay afloat long enough to find stability and begin healing.

With all my heart,

Hailey
