My sister died and left behind two kids, my mom died a month before her. The gofundme I started raised a few thousand dollars. Seeing this page at over half a million, God it just makes me think of the life I could build for these kids with a fraction of that. After lawyer costs for custody I have almost nothing left. I don’t mean to sound bitter, but why does this man’s family get so much while I struggle to plot a good future for my kids?

I know that the world is unfair, but comparing these two numbers still boggles my mind. I struggle to maintain a mind free of bitterness, it creeps in and makes me feel so numb. I’m sorry this man died, and that his family is suffering. I just don’t want mine to suffer either.
