Hey, my name is Nicole Garner, I am a foster parent here in Stokes County North Carolina (actually in the of the foster commercial aired on WXII news channel 12). I work full time as a nurse and currently in school for my nurse practitioner license. My husband is active duty in the ARMY and almost done with his 20 years and he lives across the country in Washington state. We were able to gain kinship of my daughter and she's two years old now and we adopted, she has been our angel. I also was asked would I take on a 13-day old baby boy and pick him up from NICU (mind you my daughter was only 6 months old). I have no clue how I managed my own child, my daughter, and another infant. Long story short, the goal for fostering is to reunify the child with their parent or parents, I kept the small baby until he was almost 1 year old. We actually became super close to his mother and have become her only family. She is a single mom of two boys, one is 11 years old, and one is 1.5 years old. I still talk to her every say to make sure she is staying strong, and I am so proud of her, and I still keep sweet boy. They are always welcome in my home; She gained a huge family when she met mine. The once drug user mother has been clean for almost 2 years now, she works full-time and overtime as a Registered Nurse. However, she doesn't receive assistance for anything, never has and won't qualify for it because of her job title. Her lease is close to $1,200 a month and she pays $981 for daycare. Of course, there are other bills that we all have every month. She had a car, paid off and had insurance but only liability insurance coverage. Last week she had to stay home from work because everyone had the flu, she had run out to pick up diapers Friday and the next morning she noticed her car wasn't there. Someone stole her only vehicle, my heart breaks for her so bad because despite everything she's overcame, life keeps hitting her hard. I help in every way possible because we love her. I wanted to start a go fund me page to try to drum up at least $5,000 for her to be able to afford a used dependable car. She has no one and she's staying positive, but she needs a break. I pray for her and the boys all the time. She doesn't deserve all of this. Please help, every cent counts! LET'S HELP THIS MAMA!!
