My name is Abby. I have 3 amazing, wonderful children. In May, myself and my kids were faced with some difficult choices resulting from domestic abuse. We chose to leave our friends and home as we knew it to be. I decided to leave my marriage and everything we knew of our realities in search of healthier, safer lives. I left my jobs and we left our friends... our home. A few months later, barely getting by, I have found work and I'm trying to catch up financially. This is my biggest stress. I would love to have "fun days" with my children in our new enviroment but I have to consider gas money and most days fill my extra time with job searching. The time in my days and the weight of falling behind can be overbearing but we are keeping our heads up and looking forward to what life will be like when we can settle in and relax. I am on the right track it is taking more time than expected and I find it disheartening and frustrating constantly trying to play catch up and "maybe next month". We have begun to heal. To those of you that have allowed me to borrow vehicles and helped already, Thank You!! Any financial support given would relieve so much and words can not express our appreciation for any donations. Thank You!
