I know you often see women like me, but I wanted you to know that it was YOU who gave me my first little strength and strength after being abandoned by my ex.
You never made me feel stupid or unworthy to ask for help for myself and my children, and it began my journey to become a single, powerful, and strong woman for my daughters to testify, and I will always be eternally grateful for your help. There is a special place in heaven for people like you and what you do. Thanks again for all your help during this time.
