Urgent Help Needed for the Whitfield Family
Donation protected
This year so far has been the absolute toughest on me and my family.
And I am making this GoFundMe in hopes there are some people out there that care and are able to help. This was not easy, to say the least.
At first, my ego was too big to even share this here, but I have no other choice than to ask for help.
So I'm going to share my story here first, and I'm praying that besides all the judgment, I hope someone is able to help us.
So as most people know, I am a mother of 3. Yes, I am also married to my wonderful wife, Ti-Esha Whitfield. We recently took a turn for the worst here since May when my wife's job of 8 years closed the doors for good. (No unemployment was given.) But she did start her new job 2 days after her last day at her previous job, and not to mention took a severe pay cut.
I have worked on and off, but due to my health and staying at home with our 4-year-old autistic son, I have not been able to keep a full-time job. It made more sense to stay at home and be mom instead of paying $1400 a month for childcare that we didn't have.
So now we are in this situation trying to play catch up. My wife is out daily looking for a second job. I am about to start driving for a rideshare company, so that will definitely help until we can get on our feet. We're just needing help, and neither of us usually ask anyone for help, but this is serious.
Our backs are against the wall. We have 3 kids that go to school in 30 days, and the thought that we may not have anywhere to go or call home is heartbreaking.
Life hit us all at once. Just in May, my wife lost her job, our transmission went out on the car, and I got not-so-good news about my health (and I'm not even able to focus on getting me seen about because now I have my babies to worry about).
So I'm going to tag everyone, and I'm praying for a miracle. Everyone falls sometimes, so please, no judgment and hateful comments. And before anyone says call churches, etc., I have been for the last month.
So if anyone is able to help, please send me a DM. Thank you so much for just reading.
