Hello I am a single Father of 4 beautiful kids 3 girls and a little boy they have always been my whole world. Sometime around 2 years ago or so covid and economic problems hit our family particularly hard my best friend for 20 years and the owner of our company Novatech Communications unexpectedly died at only 33 years old the combination of his absence and covid restrictions making what we did for work no longer possible as it was entirely reliant on working with people in person in Mainly crowded public businesses impossible to do anymore at any real volume bars concert venues restaurants all closed to public due to risk of spreading covid reduced our demographic of clientele down to nothing obviously since business couldn’t operate and be open and make money they weren’t in a position to contract companies to manage they’re security systems IT phones internet and POS systems. The result left me out of work unexpectedly and abruptly and having been use to making a very good living and with a large family house multiple vehicles tons of bills the sudden end to any income left us in dier hardship strapped to keep a roof over my kids head or food on the table I was forced to consider any means necessary to feed my kids. I would do anything for them I would die for them any parents out there understand how real that feeling is how powerful your conviction is to keep them from suffering even at the expense of your own health or convenience. My world spinning around me as a man I can admit that in that intense moment of weakness and vulnerability I made some very poor decisions and did some things I’m not proud of I committed se crimes to get quick money feeding my kids and delaying they’re suffering honestly seemed a fair exchange for the risk of my freedom in that moment I am not a bad person I have multiple bachelor degrees in engineering never had a criminal background whatsoever before a couple years ago and I’m nearly 40 I was sent to prison for a year for one of the crimes and was just released a few weeks ago and the difficulties I now face having lost everything am now on the street with no money looking for work homeless no transportation desperately trying to get back on my feet a roof over my head so I can get work and a car again so I can have a place to be in a position. To get my kids back living with me I’m normally far to proud to ask anyone for help I’ve always managed to figure out a way to push thru life I find my self for the first time at rock bottom pride gone out the door nothing matters to me more then getting my kids and life back not even the embarrassment of having to own my mistakes and beg for help and mercy from my fellow man please I beg you to have compassion if you are in a position to help only if it in now way will risk your own situation or financial stability anything helps nobody will ever be more genuinely grateful then I will be for a second chance at life I’ve lost everything for 1 wrong decision that was honestly made with the single intention of feeding my children and keeping them from homelessness I’m sorry for my mistakes but is everything that has happened truly fair punishment for that mistake
