Hi all. I am reaching out for help to fund my trip to go see my son Enrique in Kansas. I did an open adoption when he was born. I made this choice for him to have a better and more stable life. At that time of my life i was homeless, a drug addict, and a male entertainer (escort). Others call it being a prostitute. Anyway i knew i couldnt give him the life he deserved. Me growing up with no father figure in my life made me want him to have someone to call dad. I know how much it hurts not having a dad and i didnt want him to feel that pain. I am known to him as birthmom but im not sure if he understands it just yet. Hes 3 now. I have missed out on so much. His parents brought him to visit with me in arizona. We got to spend 2 days together. It was so amazing but very short lived. My plans are to relocate to be closer to him so i can possibly see him on a daily basis. Hes my heart and soul. Its been so hard dealing with me doing the open adoption but i know it was for the best. I dont have the money to relocate but im hoping reaching out to you whomever you are that you could possibly help me visit him. My life has changed alot. I work maintenance here at the apartment complex i live at. Been here 2 years. I have a 1 bedroom apartment. The pay isnt very much because they give me an apartment rent free. So i dont have the extra money to save for a trip to kansas. With your help i pray i can see him soon. Thank you for taking the time to read this. God bless
