Hello world, I’m sure many of you have been dealing with similar situations with your family, and everything seems so hard for everybody right now.

Me and my family have been going through the wringer this past year or so. My mom, Cherish, especially has been dealing with so, so much.

In the month of December 2023, she unexpectedly lost her mother. As a result of that, my mom went through a very bad depression episode that led her to the mental hospital because she wasn’t safe from herself. Due to extenuating family issues after her mom died, she also lost her home in April of 2024 and has been staying in hotels or wherever she could since then.

In January of 2025, she lost her knee function due to stage 4 osteoarthritis and has been unable to do extra gig work that she was doing just to get by. She had to go part-time at work due to the pain and inability to walk without assistance.

So she needs help just trying to survive, make the car payment because she can't lose that, and the insurance and a place to stay for after surgery for a while at least until she can heal from upcoming surgery.
