JUSTICE FOR JRUE

hi everyone

my name is jaime and i hope my story finds you well.

i am writing this right before mother's day with a heavy heart, but also with a deep sense of hope and gratitude. as many know i'm born and raised in new orleans and now live in dallas.

i am a single mom, pharmacist, and business owner of kin essentials.

for the last 2 years i have been silently fighting a drawn out custody battle with my child's father.

a short summary of what's happening:

in summer of 2020 i relocated to wichita falls tx with jrue and my sons father. although we moved to a small country town as a family, the relationship was ended by him within 6 months. i was not licensed as a pharmacist and a stay at home mom / entrepreneur. however, shortly after the relationship ending told me to leave, he filed for custody (while i still lived in our home) through the county courts (first) with lies and false allegations against me and also falsely stating that we were married to obtain any custody rights to jrue.

as any stay-at-home breastfeeding mother would do, i went home to new orleans, la where we moved from to have family support emotionally and to work.

fast forward to now that i live in texas:

ive spent over 100k in attorney fees, drove over 25,000 miles back & forth (pick up drop off), restricted from basic rights (doctor visits, school events, time, only weekend visits, facetime calls, babysitters etc.), over $12,000 of child support and more. for this all driven from my child's father that is a physician who deliver babies for a living is sickening.

no matter how many times i've put forth the truth to the courts even into final trial. i am still having to fight towards justice and for jrue to be with me full time. this battle in an evident bias court room and needs to be seen higher.

in real time it has taken an immense toll on jrue and i, both emotionally, physically, and financially. i have poured all of my resources into this fight and while i will never give up on my son, i must also acknowledge that i cannot continue to bear the financial burden of this process alone much longer.

i am reaching out to y'all today to ask for your support. whether it be through your prayers, your positive thoughts, or your financial contributions, i am deeply grateful for anything you may be able to offer.

i know that some have already offered your support in so many ways, and i cannot express how much that means to jrue and i. your kindness and compassion have been a lifeline for me during this difficult time, and i am so grateful to have you all in my life.

as i continue to go higher and fight for him to be returned to me, it will be very costly and beyond my own means.

i hold onto the hope that we will emerge from this struggle stronger and more resilient than ever before. i know God is working and he will see through that jrue will return to my primary care.

through this difficult journey, I have learned the importance of having a strong relationship with God, perseverance, resilience, and to make sure you truly know a person before having a baby with them. as a child is brought into the world as a blessing from God and needs both parents. no great mother should encounter their baby stripped away from lies, bitterness and controlled by the courts.i have also learned to never give up on fighting for what is right and just, especially when it comes to what you love and lies never live.

as mother's day approaches, I am reminded of the immense love and sacrifice that comes with being a mother. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a mother to my son and for the endless support and love from my own mother.

in the end, I hope that my story serves as a reminder to never give up hope and to always have strong faith, even in the midst of adversity. with hope, faith, and perseverance, we can overcome any obstacle and come out stronger on the other side.

thank you for reading and i appreciate your kind words, prayers, and help.

with love and gratitude,

jaime
