Hi. My name is Lexxi, and I am writing because I need to find someone to help my mom and me. A year ago, we were a happy family. Then my dad went to maine to work, and stayed there. He started doing drugs and got a 24 year old girlfriend (only 9 years older than me so gross), and says he's never coming back. To me, it feels like my dad died and that guy in maine is some jerk who took over his body. We used to be really close, but now I hope I never see him again. See, my mom is sick. She has a heart condition that runs in the family. Two of my uncles have it too and had to have heart surgery. It makes her tired a lot and makes it so she can't do certain things, like lift heavy stuff or climb a lot of hills. She has to take a lot of medicines, and they make her sick alot too. When she found out my dad was cheating on her, she had to go to the hospital for 11 days. My grandma and me were so scared. When she was in the hospital my dad took all the money except for 16 dollars out of the bank and even though he said he would send us some, he never has. He doesn't work because his girlfriend has money.
My mom means everything to me. She is a great woman. She always tries to help everyone and always takes good care of me no matter how sick she is. She doesn't deserve this and I hate my dad for what he is doing to her. She has been trying to find a job but it's already hard even when your not sick and she hasn't had a job since before I was born because my dad wanted her to stay home with me. She's really smart, and talented. She makes these amazing ornaments with snow scenes and pets and stuff on them. Its really cool because the pictures she paints on them are so small but have all these details. I was thinking if people would buy some from her we might be able to pay our house payment and taxes? A guy that my grandpa knows asked her to paint one for his granddaughter last year and paid her $20 for it. It had Tinkerbell in a Christmas outfit. Then she painted one for my uncle and aunt with their two dogs on it and it looked just like them! She makes awesome wreaths too.
My mom can do alot of stuff because she always had to do them for my dad like all his travel plans and all his phone calls and stuff. I was thinking that if someone needed that kind of stuff done she could do it from home and that way she could rest when she needs to.
I hope someone out there can help us. I just want my mom to not have to worry all the time and I know if we lose our house she will feel like its her fault because she's sick. Please someone help us. Please. Even if you can only spare a few dollars it will help.
