Hi, I’m Mel, I have a husband and ask 8 year old, and I’m hoping to find some help here. Living with an alcoholic husband who spends every night at bars has placed my family in a state of significant financial debt and left a negative influence on our son. This ongoing situation affects my ability to provide a healthy and nurturing environment for my child, causing me to feel trapped by the weight of my husband’s alcoholism. My primary goal is to catch up on our mounting bills and secure a divorce lawyer in case the separation becomes contentious, as breakups are never easy.
Although I understand that crowdfunding is not be a guaranteed solution, I find myself in a desperate situation and am considering this option as a means to escape the difficulties we are facing. It is a difficult decision to make, and I feel conflicted about resorting to crowdfunding, but I am left with few alternatives.
I want to clarify that my intention is not to completely separate my son from his father. Despite his struggles with alcoholism, my husband still possesses a loving heart. I acknowledge that alcoholism is a disease, and I hold on to the hope that he can seek the necessary help to overcome it. However, the current situation has become untenable, and I believe that a divorce might be the best path forward for all of us.
It is not easy to ask for help from strangers, but I feel compelled to take this leap in pursuit of a better future for myself and my child. I understand the responsibility that comes with asking for support, and I am committed to using any funds raised responsibly and solely for the purpose of improving our lives.
I dream of a life where my son can grow up in a stable and secure environment, free from the turmoil and financial strain caused by his father’s addiction. My goal is to provide him with the love, care, and guidance he needs to thrive, even if it means navigating a difficult divorce process.
I want to extend my gratitude to anyone who considers supporting our crowdfunding campaign. Your kindness and generosity can make a significant difference in our lives, helping us overcome the challenges we face and find a new beginning. Please know that your contribution, whether big or small, will be immensely appreciated and put to good use.
I believe in the strength of the human spirit and the power of collective support. Together, we can create a positive change and help me build a better life for myself and my son. Thank you for reading my story and for any support you can offer in our journey towards a brighter future.
