You may know me as the award winning writer of Image Comics BINGO LOVE or the GLAAD nominated Harley Quinn: Eat. BANG! K*ll Tour series from DC Comics or Marvel Comics’ Sun-Spider, but right now I’m just Tee, affectionately known as AunTee and I’m crowdfunding for a new apartment.

I’m disabled and living with chronic pain, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Chiari Malformation, Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia and more. I depend on my adult children to live and let’s just say I can no longer SAFELY do this.

On August 3rd, I used my body as a shield to protect my daughter from her abusive fiancé and it triggered me deeply.

My ex-husband was abusive in all of the ways, but he never used closed fists —which “made it better or easier” to hide what I was going through and yesterday reminded me of him. March 2007 was the last time he put his hands on me after hitting me with my car in front of our daughters.

I vowed back then to leave because my kids finally saw. I didn’t want them to be with abusers like their father. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case. It has been 7 years of on and off again abuse and I can no longer subject myself to what I’ve been experiencing.

No amount of talking will get thru to my child and I just can’t anymore. Having someone walk up to me with a box cutter after putting hands on me and my kid was the last straw.

As of this writing it hasn’t been 24 hours and my body is so sore. “Physically” I’m fine, I wasn’t injured injured if that makes sense. I spent yesterday crying and reliving all the abuse I endured.

Domestic violence and abuse has been apart of my life for so long. I survived what’s in the Epstein files when my mom sold me to 2 cults as a child, abuse from multiple men and women and goddamit…

I AM FUCKN TIRED!!!!!

I have had 5 strokes in 2024 all from stress, harassment and DV and I REFUSE to let this take my life.

I turn 50 in February and I want…I NEED…I DESERVE to have a peaceful home! I deserve to not have to live on eggshells, I deserve to not have to jump up scared, I deserve to not have to sleep with a knife.

So I am crowdfunding for an apartment, to fix my car so that I can get to doctor’s appointments and to have funds to be able to survive, so I won’t have to depend on the people who are traumatizing me.

Thank you for reading and supporting.
