Help me stay here with my family

Donation protected
This has been a pretty rough year so far as a new family, after my wife gave birth to our amazing son, she developed nerve damage that caused her to be unable to return to work, and negligence of my DACA case resulting in me losing my job, and being unable to work anywhere for 6 months, really put us in a hole. Now with this news of DACA being taken away, it has honestly crushed us, as the only other way for me to stay and work in this country, to provide for my family, raise our son (and future children) is to file for permanent residency, but living off of just my paycheck, we cannot afford the high fees and lawyer costs it would take to do so. My DACA status will expire in a little over a year, so we are obviously in a major rush, as these processes take time. We are asking for any help you may provide, so I can continue to stay in this country that I consider my HOME, to stay with my wife and son, who I love more than anything.
I came here at 5 years old, told I was just walking to my grandmothers house in Mexico, and ended up in America. This is my home. I can't be sent back to Mexico, a country I barely know, and just leave my wife to take care of our son on her own. We ask only to help what you can, as we know we're not the only ones struggling.
Even a single dollar would help. Thank you so much. Much love
Edi, Paige, and baby Stefan.
