There are moments in life that test everything you believe about love, family, and justice. This is one of those moments.
On behalf of Yvette, I have created this GoFundMe to support her in a fight no mother should ever have to face alone.
Yvette is a devoted mother who has spent over two decades caring for her daughter, Destiny, who is disabled and depends on consistent, compassionate support. Since the age of 18, Yvette has been her primary caregiver—showing up every single day with love, patience, and unwavering commitment.
Today, that bond has been abruptly and painfully disrupted.
Due to a contested conservatorship, Destiny has been placed under the control of another family member. This decision has separated a mother from the daughter she has raised, protected, and cared for her entire life. Despite Yvette’s long history of responsible caregiving—with documented support from teachers, nurses, and caseworkers—she now faces an uphill legal battle to restore her role in her daughter’s life.
This is not just a legal issue.
This is a human one.
Yvette is navigating this process without the financial resources to secure specialized legal representation. Contested conservatorship cases are complex, time-consuming, and emotionally draining. Yet she continues to fight—not out of anger, but out of love.
Because at the center of all of this is a daughter who deserves stability, familiarity, and the presence of the mother who has always been there for her.
The stress and heartbreak of this situation have begun to take a toll on Yvette’s health. Still, she refuses to give up. She is determined to pursue this the right way—with integrity, evidence, and persistence—so she can reunite with her daughter and ensure her well-being.
She is not asking for revenge.
She is asking for a fair chance.
Your support will help cover:
Legal fees for an experienced conservatorship attorney
Court filing and administrative costs
Medical and documentation retrieval necessary to present her case
Basic living support during this process so she can focus on fighting for her daughter
Every contribution—no matter the size—brings her one step closer to being reunited with Destiny.
And if you’re unable to give, sharing this story matters just as much.
Because no mother should have to fight this hard to be in her child’s life—especially one who has already given so much.
This is about restoring what should have never been taken.
Thank you for standing with Yvette.
