I am reaching out with hope and humility during a pivotal moment in my life. After a marriage of over 26 years, my partner and I amicably parted ways, having raised two wonderful children together. Stepping into a new chapter, I faced unexpected challenges that tested my resilience.
My first relationship after the separation turned harmful, exposing me to domestic and sexual violence and trauma that resulted in PTSD. To ensure my safety, I had to relocate and start anew, which deeply affected my personal and professional life. Despite these setbacks, I remained determined to provide for my family and rebuild my future.
When our marital home was sold, I used my portion to move closer to my daughters, who were expecting their first child. I set up a small business with high hopes, but then the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Unable to work and not qualifying for government assistance, my savings were depleted by rent and supporting my eldest daughter and grandchild who moved in with me.
Eventually, I returned to work in a role that provided accommodation, but it meant being miles away from my family. The distance, combined with the lingering effects of past trauma and PTSD, has left me feeling isolated and struggling with my mental health. However, I have a promising idea to become self-employed, which would allow me to be closer to my loved ones and regain stability.
I am working diligently to turn this idea into reality, but I need a helping hand to cover some essential expenses. These include retrieving my belongings from storage, setting up a website, purchasing a printer, and other miscellaneous business costs. Despite working hard and being conscientious in my efforts, my current income isn’t sufficient to cover these upfront expenses.
Your support would make a significant difference in my journey toward rebuilding my life. It would help me establish a sustainable income, reunite with my family, and move past the challenges that have held me back. I have spent my life serving others, rarely asking for anything in return, and now I humbly ask for your assistance.
Every contribution, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to achieving my goals. If you’re unable to donate, sharing my story with others who might be able to help would mean the world to me.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can provide.
