Mila sat on the floor for ages, unable to move, her fingers trembling so badly that she could barely unwrap the package.

I read the story of a single mother here who said she didn’t know what to do and couldn’t see a way out. It made me want to share my own story—not to judge anyone, but because when you have children and you’re in need, you can’t just sit around and wait for money to fall from the sky.
