Support Ashley's Fight for Daisy's Justice

Hi, My name is Ashley. I am a Single mom to a dazzling, intelligent, kind, creative and magical 5 year old named Daisy. Also a dog mom to a spunky Blue heeler Bandit, or as daisy dubbed her "Brother" Rooie. They are exactly 6 months to the day apart. I left my Marriage when daisy was 5 months old and roo was almost a year. My ex husband was found to be abusing steroids heavily, was physically and emotionally abusive, and very controlling.

My whole experience of getting married, having the child i had always wished for to call my own and the family Ive always longed for was filled with torment, chaos, abandonment greif and so much sadness.

I left that marriage with an infant, a rowdy puppy with no money, home, or stability. He had begged me to be a stay at home mom, and shortly after i quit an amazing career, i ended up on the street and luckily was blessed with an amazing support system who took us in while we figured out our next steps and plans for stability.

Shortly after we divorced, my ex had married his mistress, an attorney from clark county and i had hoped he had moved on from the torment and harassment he had instilled on a daily basis. At the entry of the decree, the judge deemed his evidence and request for half custody not credible enough due to all of the threats, extortion, harassment that was evidenced, and awarded me primary custodian, obligating him to have to take responsibility financially of half our daughter and share our child.

From age two Daisy would come home from visits from dads a hot mess, always upset and super clingy, with rashes that couldn't be addressed as a co parent, and multiple marks on her face. 'she came home upset and clingy, it took days of just her and i to get her back to the normal toddler i knew and was raising.

The first time she came home with her whole mouth busted open so bad her teeth busted through her lips. he said had ran into a table, but it was confirmed by my step daughter 10 at the time, that when she cries for me, he would "flick her in the mouth. This started the first substantiated and levied protective order on him. throughout the next 3 years after until now, and also mow that shes gone from age 2-5 shes been able to articulate the happenings in dads care, and had opened the vulnerability to share these incidents with people she trusted in my care (grandma, my ex at the time, my therapist during family counseling to help her learn to adjust between homes) These concerns rose awareness to dcfs and other government officials that again, placed another protective order on my ex in October of last year. The exact same guardian ad litem was assigned to the case from the first protective order in 2021. John having just recently marrying an attorney at the time had always intervened with the legal professionals, flexing her own credentials and forming a heavy bias towards my exes and his wife's version of the story, rather than the truth my daughter could barely articulate and is too scared of the consequences of her fathers corporal punishment tactics to convey to these strangers prying her for information.

They easily won the bias of that guardian ad litem on the case whom did not bother to include me in his investigations, didn't look at the documentations and data i've meticulously kept of my Childs concerns and claims, and lied before the commissioner about things he heard or saw, which my documentation and record keeping proves otherwise. All the sudden the tables turned around on me real Vastly. Over false and un evidenced accusations, that also change every time we are before the commissioner.

I went to full time mom for 5 years, to maybe getting to see my chid 4 hours at a time every so often. Sometimes we have gone weeks without contact these past 9 months .This has caused much strife for Daisy, having been ripped away from her primary attachment figure, home, dog, and family support system that its really been the hardest thing watching her digress and act out of just longing to be back home. The past 9 months i have not been able to tuck my child in, allow her to have positive life and learning experiences, or even have time to let her visit and see the family and friends whom have been worried knowing her dad for her and missing her so.

Its my worst nightmare come true.

Ive spent 5 years in litigation with my exes and his anger of my being awarded primary. While in the beginning i had proper representation, and have had to seek out less expensive ones who have attained off the good graces of my family and support system but have failed me because of all of the history and incidents involved in my case. Its hard for any rational human to keep up with.Due to not having the same income as my engineer ex and his attorney wife to sustain this constant litigation, the i am now working on behalf of my daughters as my own representation. It has been daunting and very difficult. It take hours and some times days to weeks to navigate the legal system, and write the right types of forms to submit to the court to defend her and i and to get our assertion noticed. I am being bullied by his hired attorney who insists on twisting my words and not consulting with me before things are set in stone and this has brought me a great had to beg borrow and plead just to keep up wit it. It has been financially draining, emotionally tormenting, my work ethic has depleted and mentally disabling .My care team has urged me to take a short term mental health disability until this smoke clears, because how negatively this instance has impacted my work ethic, finances, relationships and self worth. I filed last september, but still no answers.

I know that little girl knows where her home and heart is. I hear it every time we have to part ways unwillingly with heavy hearts and uncertain of the future. But I will continue to advocate for her well being, wishes, and best interests to the justice system until there is finally justice for Daisy. They are running out of hoops for me to jump through and i have proved to the court that i am more than worthy to deserve my child to have her life back and i wont stop until our only wish and dream to be back together comes true.

Needless to say, I have ran out of any resources to help aid in this rigorous battle that has turned my life, heart and soul upside down. I am not the thriving person i was anymore yet and am traumatized on a constant basis because of this.

We are so so so very grateful for all of the love and support we already received from so many of our family and friends and we could not be more blessed or grateful.

Im being asked what non profit i want donations to come to for my birthday coming up, and i couldn't really think of a better time to extend my story as a non profit because everything that comes my way is going directly sustain the home i have built for daisy, roo and i leaving an abusive man and maintaining the only home daisy knows of.Also to help me get through the hours and days it takes to rebuttal, be in therapy, attend court hearing every other week and accomodate any given time Im allowed to be with that precious and magical little soul Ive spent my whole life wishing for.

I want to thank everyone in advance and also you know im selling my most prized possessions and creations on any social media platforms, ebay @banditinthebeehive to gather any proceeds for Daisys justice and best interests and to raise awareness, educate, and advocate those whom are in he same situation.

May the universe bless you all in so many beautiful ways, and thanks for reading my only birthday wish and wish in life.

Best,

Ashley, Daisy and Rooie
