Hey I wanted to thank everyone for helping us with rent, we were able to pay that at least and we’ll figure out other bills later.
I recently welcomed a new bundle of joy into my life as an infant family member was placed into my custody.
She’s a week from being four months and while the state will be helping us with monthly payments and WIC, because she’s only been in my custody for a short period of time it’ll be at least a week before I can use those services. It was also unexpected - I didn’t know she was born and even after they contacted me, it was a ping ponging situation. Then they’re asking if we’re available for placement within a week.
Suffice to say, we didn’t have a lot of time and resources to fully prepare. We have formula and diapers but they’re running low and I’d rather she not run out before I can use those services to help pay for her needs.
If you could send a few bucks so we can re-up our supply before her WIC appointment next week, that would be much appreciated. We are a queer multiracial couple and first time parents.
Thank you so much to this community, you’ve helped us so much over the years.
Karl Barx and baby Melusine
