Help Becca Protect Her Daughters: Legal Fees for Custody and Adoption
Hi, my name is Carne Lee, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my dear friend and coworker Becca and her family. For the past 9 years, Becca has been the sole guardian and loving mother to her two nieces, Kyra (12) and Shayna (10), along with her two biological daughters, Lilly (11) and Daisy (6). While Becca is their aunt by blood, Kyra and Shayna have always known her as Mom—she has raised them as her own daughters from the moment they came into her life, and they consider her to be their mom in every sense of the word.
Becca has built a loving, stable, and supportive home for all four girls, alongside her partner, Amanda, and her mother, the girls’ grandmother. This tight-knit family has worked hard to create a safe environment where the girls thrive, despite the many challenges they’ve faced over the years.
However, Becca’s world has been turned upside down. The biological mother of Kyra and Shayna, who has been entirely absent from their lives and provided no financial support, is now attempting to regain custody of the girls. This is a devastating blow, as Kyra—who has significant developmental delays and autism—requires specialized care and understanding, which her biological mother has never provided. Becca is the only mother Kyra and Shayna have known, and the thought of them being torn from their home and the only stability they’ve ever known is heart-wrenching.
To make matters worse, the biological mother has hired a highly aggressive lawyer, and Becca is now facing the financial strain of a legal battle to protect her daughters. She is fighting not just for custody, but for the future and well-being of her family, and she needs your help to make sure Kyra and Shayna remain in the loving home where they belong.
How You Can Help:
Becca urgently needs funds for a lawyer’s retainer fee to help protect her daughters’ future. The legal fees are a significant burden, and without the proper legal support, Becca risks losing the family she’s worked so hard to protect. We are hoping to raise $5000 to cover the retainer fee and other immediate legal costs.
Becca has always prioritized her daughters’ well-being, and right now, she needs our support to ensure Kyra and Shayna can stay with the only mother they’ve ever known. Your donation will directly go toward the legal expenses, and any amount—no matter how small—will help Becca continue to fight for the future of her daughters.
Why This Matters:
Becca has been both a mother and a fierce protector for Kyra and Shayna. They have never known anyone else as their mother, and they need to remain in the stable, loving environment Becca has provided. Kyra’s special needs require a level of care, understanding, and routine that only Becca has been able to provide, and the biological mother has never been involved in meeting those needs. This is not just a custody battle—it’s about giving these girls the security, love, and care they deserve.
The emotional and financial toll of this fight is immense, and Becca cannot do it alone. Any support you can offer—whether it’s donating, sharing this page, or simply sending well wishes—will make a tremendous difference. Thank you for your generosity, your compassion, and your belief in family.
