Honestly... I really thought I would do this for my family. We have endured so much pain and suffering, but the person who did it was me. I was the one who bent over backwards for everyone, and I still got shitted on. So, in all honesty, this GoFundMe is for me so I can get my own place, be at peace with myself, and not have to deal with the pressures of being a wife. It's too much. You don't feel loved, or attractive, or approachable. So, I'm looking for a tiny house/home for my 2 cats. Can you help me?

I am raising funds for myself and my family because we are facing a series of challenges that have made life incredibly difficult. I am on social security disability due to anxiety and depression, which stem from a childhood filled with abuse and financial hardship. My parents took everything from me—paychecks, gifts, any form of money—and the emotional pain was overwhelming. Eventually, I left home with nothing but black garbage bags and never looked back. For over 26 years, I have been living with my in-laws, and I am so grateful for their support. My mother-in-law was my best friend, but she passed away 10 months ago, and her loss has left a huge void in my life. My own mother has not spoken to me since then, and the isolation has been hard to bear. Recently, I was badly injured in a car accident. The airbags did not go off, and the pain has been unbearable ever since. I am unable to work, which means I can't even go food shopping. Our fridge is empty, and the food for our cats is running out. We sleep on a bed that is 25 years old, and it only makes my pain worse. Even simple things like doing laundry are out of reach, as my father-in-law does not allow me to use the machines we bought. Despite everything, I am grateful for what I have, but I dream of a fresh start—a tiny home with a garden, some land to grow sunflowers, and a few animals like chickens, ducks, maybe even a llama or goat. I just want a simple, peaceful life after so much trauma and pain. Your support would mean the world to me. Even a small donation can make a huge difference—helping us buy food, cleaning supplies, pet food, and maybe a new bed. If I ever get a tiny home, I will paint it and fill it with love. God bless you. You have no idea how a little donation helps. I love to make people happy myself, and this will make me beyond happy.

In 2007, I was in a terrible car accident that changed my life forever. At the time, no one could have predicted the amount of pain and difficulty I would face in the years that followed. The injuries I sustained have left me with chronic back and shoulder pain, making it nearly impossible to work more than a few hours part-time. Even though I receive social security disability for my anxiety, it’s not enough to cover all our needs. I’ve tried to work when I can, but lately, the pain has become so severe that I haven’t been able to work at all. As a result, our food supply has gotten very low, and I’ve had to sell many personal belongings just to make ends meet. Despite my best efforts, it’s still not enough to provide for my family. My struggles go back even further. I endured mental and physical abuse throughout my life, and when I met my husband, my parents never accepted him. After my mother-in-law passed away, my own mother stopped speaking to me—it’s been 10 months since we last spoke. For years, my parents took money from me—my paychecks, my inheritance, and more—leaving me without savings or a safety net. I’ve always struggled to get by, relying on credit cards and doing whatever I could to support my family. It’s been a difficult journey, and I carry a lot of pain from these experiences. That’s why I’m reaching out for help now. If you’re able to support us, your kindness will help us buy groceries and cover basic living expenses while I focus on healing. Thank you so much for reading our story and for opening your heart to help us get back on our feet. Your support truly means the world to me and my family.

My mother-in-law became very ill and, sadly, she passed away. There was no funeral or mass for her, and the loss has been incredibly hard on my family. I became extremely depressed, and it has truly been a nightmare for all of us. The grief and stress have made it difficult to keep up with daily life, and we’re struggling to get back on our feet. Right now, we’re having a hard time paying for food and basic living expenses. Things have gotten so tough that I took a picture of our fridge to show just how empty it is. Even though I’m getting some help, it’s not enough to cover everything we need. Every day feels like a challenge, and it breaks my heart to see my family go through this. As a little girl in Manhattan in the 70s, I always tried to help others, even giving a smile or a little something to those who needed it most. Now, I find myself in need of kindness and support. If you’re able to help, it would mean the world to my family and me. Thank you for reading our story and for any support you can give.
