Please Help Me Get My Children to Safety

I am a mother trying to escape abuse, violence, and life-threatening conditions before it’s too late for my children and me.

Hi, my name is Allison, and I am doing everything I can to protect my children and give them a chance at a safe life.

I never imagined I would have to ask for help like this, but after years of abuse, trauma, and living in constant fear, I have reached a point where I cannot do this alone anymore.

What We’ve Been Through

For years, I have survived multiple abusive relationships.

My daughter’s father was physically abusive and has not been part of her life in over a decade. Despite a court agreement, he walked away, and his family has never acknowledged her. I spent years trying to do the right thing, but I could not force people to care.

After that, I was in another relationship where the abuse escalated to terrifying levels. I was stalked, harassed, threatened, and physically harmed. Even after getting a restraining order, the abuse and fear did not stop.

In 2018, I reconnected with my son’s father, hoping for a fresh start. Instead, I found myself trapped in another abusive situation.

The Abuse I Survived

During my pregnancy, I was abused in every way possible—mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially.

What should have been one of the most important times in my life became something I was just trying to survive.

I was shot at with a BB gun. I was pushed, hit, and thrown. Strangulation became something I lived in constant fear of. There were multiple times I was choked until I lost consciousness.

He would threaten to kill me and describe how he would do it, telling me no one would ever find me.

There were times I was beaten so badly that I would fade in and out of consciousness for hours—and sometimes longer. I suffered serious injuries, including a broken eye socket and a broken nose.

I was carrying our child through all of this.

I lived every day not knowing if I would survive—but I kept going for my children.

A Mother Watching Everything Fall Apart

While I was trying to survive, my family was also facing serious health issues.

My father is terminally ill with liver and kidney disease and is on dialysis three times a week.

My mother is currently battling skin cancer, along with other serious health conditions.

At the same time, I was diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety, and depression from everything I’ve endured.

But the hardest part has been watching my child suffer.

My young son has been diagnosed with ADHD and severe PTSD. At just four years old, he lives in constant fight-or-flight. Doctors told me something I will never forget—that even if he doesn’t remember the trauma, his body does.

No child should have to live like that.

My Health & Medical Crisis

On top of everything, I am also facing serious medical challenges.

I require critical medication every two months that costs $37,000, and I have recently lost my health insurance. I am now forced to pay for all of my medical care, medications, and appointments completely out of pocket.

This has created an overwhelming financial burden on top of an already impossible situation.

The Reality We Live In Now

We are currently living in an extremely unsafe environment surrounded by violence, drugs, and constant fear. There have been multiple deaths nearby, and I do not feel safe taking my children outside to play because of all the shootings and gang violence. I had

3 men try kick in my door not too long ago. Also recently we found out that there is a pedophile living in our building that has been arrested for sex trafficking minors and attempted murder. We are currently living in a place for domestic victim survivors, and we still do not feel safe.

Inside our home, we are dealing with mold and unsafe living conditions that have not been fixed. We have also faced repeated eviction threats, leaving us constantly on edge.

We are surviving—but this is not a life.

Why I Am Asking for Help

I have done everything I can.

I have worked hard and stayed at the same job for years.

I am currently in school trying to build a better future.

I have fought every single day to protect my children.

But I cannot do this alone anymore.

I am asking for help to relocate my children and myself to a safe place—and to help cover urgent living and medical expenses so we can finally begin to heal.

From a Mother’s Heart

I am not asking for a perfect life—just a safe one.

My children deserve to feel safe, to grow up without fear, and to have a chance at a normal life. Right now, I am doing everything I can, but I cannot do this alone.

Thank you for giving us hope.
