Hi my name is Gavin I am asking for Help for Our Family Through This Difficult Time

Asking for help is one of the hardest things we've ever had to do, but our family has reached a point where we simply can't manage on our own.

My wife works as a Healthcare Assistant in a hospital, caring for patients every day. Sadly, because of the severe pain caused by arthritis in her knees, she has been signed off work on sick leave. Continuing to work would put both her and the patients she cares for at risk, so she had no choice but to stop.

Unfortunately, she is paid weekly and does not receive sick pay, which means our household income has suddenly dropped.

I am also unable to work because of long-term mental health conditions, including anxiety and depression, along with physical health problems affecting my hands and shoulder. These conditions make it impossible for me to provide the financial support our family desperately needs.

The next few weeks are going to be incredibly difficult. We're worried about being able to buy food, put fuel in our car, and meet our family's basic needs. We don't earn enough to have savings to fall back on, and we're selling whatever possessions we can, but we own very little and it won't be enough to support our family of six, including our precious three-year-old granddaughter. We also have 2 dogs and a cat who gave birth to 4 kittens 7 weeks ago.

We are Christians, and we trust God to carry us through this difficult season. We believe He often works through the kindness and generosity of others, which is why we are humbly asking for your help today.

Any donation, no matter how small, will go directly towards food, fuel, and other essential living expenses while my wife recovers. If you're unable to give, we completely understand. Sharing our fundraiser or praying for our family would also mean so much to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for taking the time to read our story. Your kindness, generosity, and prayers mean more than words can express. May God bless you.
