This year I was caught up in a really bad case with a room mate who I took in out of the kindess of my heart. Trying to help a person that was in a bad position. The police coerced me into doing things that I legally did not have to do. They threatened my son being taken away, I was forced to move and now I'm battling a very scary case that had absolutely nothing to do with me. I'm terrified I will be taken away from my 4 year old child who desperatly needs his mommy. I am now struggling on paying a ridiculous amount in rent and bills but I'm working a full time job plus ive been having to sale so much of my stuff just to make it from paycheck to paycheck. On top of all of my bills and his medical expenses, I now have to pay for an attorney so that I can have proper pegal representation. Ive done everything I can think of doing and this is my last resort before I drown in all this debt and stress. I never in my life thought I'd be put in any situation that would jeopardize me losing my child. I am not a bumb or worthless, I've always worked hard for everything. I just don't know what else to do to get over this legal hump so I can put it behind me and continue living my life. I'm so independent and would never ask for help unless I needed it, I have to put my pride aside and realize that I'm not super woman and that sometimes you have to ask for help. I'm leaning on a hope and lots of prayers. God bless anyone who has read this.
