Santa’s Tree (how ironic)

December 27, 2008 Author: Corey

Santa has two children, one living in Mexico, and her daughter (7 yrs old) lives with her. Ironically, Santa’s ex-boyfriend is a good dad but a lousy boyfriend for many reasons. She worked in the marketing department of a timeshare company but was laid off. She was packing up their studio apartment as she will be evicted on Monday. She has not made her car payment, is in jeopardy of losing her vehicle. Her mother helps as much as she can but she can only do so much. It’s difficult for Santa to get help from her family. We were able to give her a Christmas tree for her daughter last week and gave her some decorations. We were able to give her a gift card and will assist her in getting a job. The job should help her get back on her feet within a month. Santa was so excited over the gift card and assistance that I she hugged and cried on my shoulder for over 20 minutes. (I don’t even hug my wife for 20 seconds). She felt so much better to express her frustrations because she has tried to stay so strong in front of her daughter. She know feels there is some hope and will keep on fighting. Thank you.
