Please Help Leyla Stay in the US!

Donation protected
So, we both have a hard time asking for help, and don't like sharing our personal problems, since everyone has their own problems, but we are out of options and we could really use some help now.

Leyla's green card application is being denied, and we need to hire an attorney to help us file a waiver and reapply. This means we need to pay for a waiver of inadmissibility, pay the green card application fee again, pay for another medical exam, and pay legal fees, all of which will cost nearly $10,000. 

As Leyla is currently in a coding bootcamp to become a software developer, she is not working and our savings have dwindled to nearly nothing. Unfortunately, since the green card application is being denied, her work authorization will expire, so she won't be able to work for another 1-2 years, and my income is not enough to support both of us and pay for all these extra expenses. 

In order for Leyla to stay in the country, we will need some financial help. If you are able to help us by donating any amount at all, it would mean so much to us. I just don't know what we will do if we cannot get the money to pay these fees. Our relationship is everything to us, and our friends and family here in the US mean so much to us, and we are so close to having our dream life if we can get over this hurdle. 

Thank you so much for your help and your generosity, it will never be forgotten.
