Replying...
Intro. It was years ago, a lifetime even, when my husband's irrational insecurities drove us away from you, my closest nephew. I never wanted to leave, not truly. You were a light in Chelsea's life, and mine, too. But pride, and a desperate hope for a semblance of peace, led me down a different path. Now, that path has crumbled beneath my feet, leaving us with nothing but the clothes on our backs and a fractured hope. I am your aunt, and I am here, standing on your doorstep, with my daughter, Chelsea. We are in need, and I swallow my pride to ask for your help. Will you open your door to us, to the family you once knew?
