Hi, my name is Ashley, and I’m reaching out as a mother who is hurting, scared, and trying to stay strong. My daughter is currently facing the biggest battle of her life — one that nearly took her from us.

Recently, she was hospitalized after a severe mental health crisis related to self-harm. We came terrifyingly close to losing her. No words can describe the pain of watching your child suffer and feeling helpless to stop it. She is now receiving the urgent medical and psychological care she needs, but the costs are overwhelming.

Mental health is just as serious as any physical illness. It’s time we speak up, support one another, and raise awareness for suicide prevention. My daughter is fighting to stay alive and find her way back to hope — and I’m doing everything in my power to be there for her every step of the way.

I’m asking for your help to cover her medical bills, ongoing therapy, and treatment expenses. I simply can’t do this on my income. Any donation — no matter the size — will help lift the financial burden and allow us to focus on what matters most: her healing and recovery.

Please consider donating, sharing, and helping us spread awareness. Your kindness could save a life.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

— Ashley
