PLEASE, My daughter needs your help
Donation protected
Mothers, parents, all over the world do whatever they can to support and protect their children. It’s been over a year now. I am writing to ask for support for my daughter, Katie, who is trying to support and protect her daughter. If you know me, you know that it is hard for me to ask for help. But mother to mother (parent to parent), I am asking now.
As all too often happens, the father became abusive shortly after the baby was born. Katie went to Mexico for a training and is now staying there to keep herself and her baby safe (as refugees).
This is where help is needed. While Katie struggles to maintain life for her and her baby in Mexico, she cannot cover the mounting legal fees. She has a protective order against the father and is seeking full custody. He closed their joint accounts and took her share. He does not pay any support for his daughter. So she cannot fight this battle without help. She has retained both Mexican and American attorneys, but the costs are mounting. Her baby’s father is a doctor with limitless resources.
I am trying the best way I know to support and protect my daughter and granddaughter – by raising money. If you are able, please help us fund the legal process to sever this abusive relationship and grant her sole custody of my granddaughter. Any amount will help and is deeply appreciated. Please share.
