My name is Kat, and I never thought I’d have to do this. But today, I’m asking for help — not for luxuries, not for comfort — but for survival, for hope, and for my son.

I’m a single mother fighting an exhausting custody battle for the most important person in my life — my little boy. He’s my entire world: smart, kind, funny, full of energy and light. He loves monster trucks, Hot Wheels, puppies, kittens, Bluey, pizza, and snuggling with his mama at night. He deserves stability, love, and peace — and I’m fighting with everything I have to make sure he gets that.

But the truth is… I’m running out of resources.

Legal fees keep piling up. Rent, food, transportation fees and bills don’t stop just because your heart is breaking. Every day feels like walking a tightrope — balancing what little I have between all these bills and paying to keep fighting for my child.

I’ve sold what I could. I’ve skipped meals. I’ve stayed up late trying to figure out how to stretch one dollar into five. But I’m at a point where I can’t do this alone anymore.

This GoFundMe will help with:

❤️ Legal fees for the ongoing custody case

❤️ Rent and utilities to keep our home stable

❤️ Everyday essentials like groceries, clothing, and transportation

I don’t take asking for help lightly — but this is bigger than pride. This is about a mother’s love and a child’s future.

If you’ve ever known what it’s like to love someone so deeply that you’d give anything to protect them, then you understand why I’m still fighting — no matter how tired I am, no matter how scared.

Every donation — no matter how small — truly makes a difference. It brings us one step closer to safety, to peace, and to staying together. Even if you can’t donate, please share this campaign. Your share might reach the person who can help us keep going.

From the bottom of my heart — thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping me fight for my son.

With love and gratitude,

Kat & her little boy
