Donna Marie’s CDH RS Journey.

Hi, my name is Rubi, and I am reaching out to you during one of the most difficult times in my life. My family is facing a series of challenges that no one should have to go through, and I’m asking for your kindness and support to help us get through this.
I’m currently in the midst of a painful divorce from my children’s father, which has made everything even more complicated. To make matters worse, I am critically ill and unable to work. My health has left me unable to contribute financially, and the strain has put my family in a very precarious situation.
My son, Diego, who is only 17 years old, has had to step up in ways no teenager should have to. He’s become the primary provider for our family, working tirelessly to bring in income so we can survive. Meanwhile, my little girl, Donna Marie, is coping with all of this emotional turmoil at a young age, and I can’t be there for her as I should because of my health.
The situation is further complicated by the toxic behavior of their father. His narcissistic actions are making it harder to co-parent, and his unwillingness to help has left me with an enormous burden that is simply too much for me to carry alone.
To make matters worse, I have a four-year-old son who requires daycare, but I’ve been unable to find affordable or reliable care. This has made it even more challenging for me to focus on my health and keep the household running smoothly.
Right now, my family needs help to cover basic expenses like rent, medical bills, and other essential needs. Diego is working hard, but the weight on his shoulders is immense, and it’s not sustainable. We need some relief so we can get back on our feet.
If you’re able to help in any way, it would mean the world to me and my children. Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly to supporting my family and alleviating some of the financial burdens we are facing.
Thank you so much for your generosity, your kindness, and your support during this difficult time. It’s hard to ask for help, but I know that with your support, we can get through this.
