Hi everyone,

Writing this feels unreal. I never thought I would have to share something like this, and my heart is broken beyond words.

I lost the love of my life, my partner, my best friend, and the father of our beautiful 5-month-old baby. He was my safe place, my future, and the person I thought I would grow old with. In a moment, everything we dreamed of together was taken from us.

I wake up every day trying to be strong for our baby and my three daughters, but the weight of this loss is overwhelming. Grieving him while caring for four children feels impossible at times. I miss him in every quiet moment, in every plan we’ll never get to finish, in every “what if” that now lives in my heart.

Along with the heartbreak comes the reality of life continuing when I feel like mine has stopped. I am now facing this loss while trying to provide for my children on my own. Rent, bills, childcare, diapers, and everyday necessities don’t wait for grief, and right now I am doing everything I can for us with a heavy heart.

Asking for help is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do, but I am reaching out with humility and hope. Any support will help us through this incredibly painful time and allow me the space to grieve, to heal, and to be present for my children as they need me now more than ever.

If you’re able to donate, please know it means more than I can express. If you’re unable to give, sharing this or keeping us in your thoughts and prayers is just as appreciated.

Thank you for surrounding my children and me with love during the darkest season of our lives.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
