Story

Dear World,

I hope this message finds you well. I find it incredibly hard to reach out like this, but I feel that I am at a point in my life where I need to ask for help. Over the years, I’ve faced a series of devastating events that have left me feeling completely lost and overwhelmed.

When I was still a teenager, I lost my sister when she was only 15, and just three years later, I witnessed my mother being murdered in front of me on Christmas Eve. I was stabbed trying to save her. The trauma from that night left me deeply scarred, both physically and emotionally.

Unfortunately, my life continued to spiral. Two years ago, I suffered another unimaginable loss when my baby was born brain dead due to the abuse I endured from my partner. In that same month, my brother took the life of my grandpa, adding to the unbearable weight I was already carrying. The pain and grief I’ve lived with led me down a dark path. After my stabbing, I became addicted to opiates, but I want you to know that I’ve been to rehab and I’m proud to say that I’ve fought hard to become sober.

However, despite all the effort I’ve put into getting clean, I’m still struggling. I am homeless and have nothing to my name. I’ve dug myself into a hole that I can’t seem to climb out of on my own. I am reaching out to you in the hope that you might be able to help me get back on my feet. I desperately want to stay on the right path, but I can’t do it without some financial support to get started.

If there’s any way you can assist me, even a little, it would mean the world to me. I am committed to rebuilding my life and staying sober, but I need a hand to get through this difficult time. I understand if this is too much to ask, but I truly appreciate you taking the time to read my story and consider helping me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
