> As many of you know, I'm in the end stages of what has proved to be an

incredibly difficult divorce from an emotionally abusive man. I have a

restraining order against him; 4 different judges agree with me and extended the

order. My kids and I are in therapy to heal from the damage he has done to us.

He's still trying to break me, by running up the legal costs and harassing me

any way he can.

> My legal costs have skyrocketed to three times the original estimate. I've

done everything I could to raise the money, but now, less than a month before

what I hope is the final court appearance, I'm tapped out. I've begun a Fundrazr

project to cover my legal costs:

graphic design business, but neither is producing much in the way of results

yet. I also have lots of stuff for sale at my print on demand shops at Zazzle

and Printfection.
