Hi everyone, My name is Kinah, and I’m a single mom to my beautiful daughter, Paisley. This past week has been one of the most painful and heartbreaking experiences of my life. I’m currently going through my fourth pregnancy loss. The physical pain, the nonstop nausea, the bleeding, and the emotional shock have been overwhelming. I’ve ended up in the ER multiple times and now need medical care to help me recover. Through all of this, I’ve still had to show up as a mom with no support system and no sitter. I’ve had to cancel all my braiding appointments—my only source of income—because I simply can’t stand, bend, or work through this level of pain. As a single mom, when I can’t work, everything stops: bills, groceries, transportation, and even basic needs for my daughter.

On top of everything, Paisley has a surgery scheduled for Friday, and she will need time to heal and recover as well. I’m asking for help so I can recover safely, make it to my medical appointments, and keep things stable for my daughter while my body and heart heal. Anything you donate will go toward covering income lost from cancelled appointments, bills and essentials while I’m unable to work, transportation to and from medical care, medications and recovery supplies, groceries and basics for me and my daughter, and Paisley’s recovery needs.

This isn’t easy to talk about, especially knowing this is my fourth loss. I’ve carried so much quietly for so long, and I’ve reached a point where I truly need help. If you can donate, share, or even just send love and prayers, it means more than you can imagine. Thank you so much. — Kinah & Paisley
