And please donโt reblog anything like that, or send me anything like that in my DMS or ask box. I hate those sort of things.
So Iโm aware I havenโt really posted anything in a while but I hope this reaches someone. My brotherโs name is Efren. Growing up he used to tease and make fun of me, but among all the teasing he also helped raise me along with our mom. When he was little he wanted to be an architect. But his is the story that a lot of Mexican American working class families face: either take the opportunities available to you to attain your dreams, or curtail those in order to take care of your family. He chose his family.
After graduating high school he turned down full ride scholarships in order to stay and work to help pay the bills. It was just him, my mom, and me. After a couple of years we got stable enough economically that he was able to go to college, but after graduation we fell on hard times again and instead of finding work in his field or applying to architecture school like he always dreamed, he decided to stick around and help us again. Itโs because of his choice to help our family that I was able to go to college too, something that for a time I didnโt think was possible. Itโs because of him that I was able to apply to and get accepted into a PhD program in the hopes of becoming a professor. Itโs because of him that my mom has a house to call her own. My mom and I owe him everything.
Yesterday, he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Heโs uninsured. Iโm a student, our mom works in childcare. Thereโs a high success rate for remission if he gets treatment, but we canโt afford it. Heโs all me and my mom have, and we canโt lose him. He chose family growing up, and itโs my turn to choose him. Please, any donation helps. I just want him to come home.
I know times are tough with covid and everything so if anyone could please just spare a dollar or a reblog thatd be great. I canโt lose him.
I've been on Tumblr for years, but my husband knows my main account so I started this side account.
I've seen Tumblr move mountains for people so I'm hoping and praying that you guys can move mountains for me.
I'm 26 years old. I've been with my husband since I was 16 and he was 20. I know now that he was attracted to me because I was young and manipulatable but at the time I was so flattered that an older college guy wanted to be in a relationship with me.
Looking back there were a lot of red flags. He didn't like any of my friends and he told me who I could hang out with and when. He told me that my school work wasn't important because I was going to be a stay-at-home wife after high school while he went out and earned a living. As teenager living in a household that was unstable and on the brink of collapse, the idea of having a strong man take care of me was very appealing and so I overlooked the red flags.
He liked to get me drunk. He'd take me to his shitty apartment and he would load me up with Mike's Hard Lemonade and Smirnoff Ice and then we'd fool around. I had a lot of pregnancy scares from 16-17 because he didn't like to wear a condom and when I was drinking it was harder for me to insist. When I was 18, I got on the pill at least. He was always pushing my boundaries in the bedroom. I'd say no to something and he'd give me the silent treatment until I let him do it. Or he'd just do it even though I said I didn't want to.
He graduated college the year I graduated high school, and we moved in together. From the beginning, he was controlling, keeping tabs on me and watching the bank account like a hawk, but I chalked it up to needing to be frugal. We were really poor, but he promised to take care of me.
Eventually, though, I had to get a job to make ends meet. He didn't like that. The first time he hit me was when I told him I'd been interviewing for jobs. It wouldn't be the last.
God, just. Ten years I let him tell me I was helpless without him, I was weak, and stupid, and only he would ever love me. I let him hit me. I let him separate me from my friends and family. I let him kick my cat.
But I'm done. I'm going to get me and Midnight out of here.
I have a PayPal set up that he doesn't know about. It's :
PayPal.me/iwillsaveher
Please help if you can. If I take money out of our joint account, he'll know, so right now I essentially have nothing. Donations will go towards boarding Midnight and getting a cell phone he doesn't know about, then I'll go from there. Please help. Please.
Ok, PayPal is making life difficult, but I was able to set up Venmo today. It's Abigail-Zimmerman-23. Thank you so much for spreading this. I'm sorry I'm not responding to individual messages, I'm a really shy person and I'm just overwhelmed with the love and support. Please spread this addition if you can.

TW: SEXUAL ASSUALT, KIDNAPPING, RAPE, FORCE
hi guys so recently i have been really worried about getting kidnapped or attacked in my area after a situation that took place in london a few days ago. a man grabbed an eleven year old girl on her way to school and tried to force her to suck his dick. another girl came out of her house and saw the girl who probably looked frightened and uncomfortable and went home to grab her mum and sister who rushed out and helped straight away. the news was spread on social media and the man was arrested and caught the same very day, thank god!
basically im here to try and ease young people about situations like this, especially girls who might be targetted by men and pedophiles. kidnapping and rape are โ of course โ very frightening situations and unfortunately, young girls in society have to be more aware of these things than boys. but that doesnโt mean you have to live your life in fear, you shouldnโt have to. hopefully these tips can allow you to few more safe going outside and help you to enjoy going out, knowing that you can help yourself while outside too!
im tagging my moots so they can find these tips and hopefully use it in their everyday life and feel safer or help themselves in danger.
