Help Me Go Home and Heal: A Journey Back to Argentina
Hi, I’m Florencia. Life has become overwhelmingly difficult, and I’m reaching out for help to find safety and healing.

My ex-wife recently had a psychotic break, accused me of terrible things, and left me homeless. She’s been violent in the past, and I fear for my life. I’m also battling severe depression and multiple health issues, including a possible cancer diagnosis. The weight of this crisis is unbearable, and I have no support system in the U.S.

I’ve been holding everything together alone — living paycheck to paycheck, covering rent, utilities, and car expenses while working a service job that doesn’t pay if I don’t show up. Despite all this, I still have dreams that require me to stay in the States. I also can’t leave permanently because I’m locked in a divorce battle that needs to be finalized before I can even consider making long-term plans.

Going back home to Argentina for just a week or two might give me the strength to keep fighting. But I need help to make it possible. I have the miles for my flight, but I can’t afford time off work without jeopardizing my ability to cover rent and essentials.

Your support will help me:

Cover rent and bills while I’m gone
Reconnect and heal with my family
Regain the strength to continue fighting for my future
Even if you can’t donate, sharing my story would mean the world to me.

Thank you for reading and for any kindness you can offer.
