I went to see my dear friend Amy the other day, just to spend some time together like we always do. I expected the usual—her warm smile and the wit that makes her such an incredible friend. We all know she keeps her struggles quiet, but they aren’t easy to hide anymore.
The truth is, Amy is not OK.
She is fighting for what’s right, for her child, and for stability with a level of strength that leaves me in awe. However, even the strongest person has a limit.
This has reached a point of absolute urgency. There are time-sensitive matters at play that require immediate action; this is no longer just a "tough time," but an emergency situation.
Because of the sensitive and crucial factors involved, I cannot provide specific details out of respect for Amy’s privacy, and my own knowledge of the specifics is limited. What I do know is that the pressure is immense and the need for support is immediate.
Amy would never ask for help—she’s the one who shows up for everyone else. But she shouldn’t have to carry this alone. She needs to know she is seen, loved, and protected so she can find the strength to keep going.
Now is the time to show up for her. Let’s remind her she isn’t alone in this fight. She’s still standing—but she cannot stand by herself anymore.
