Campaign Story
I'm disabled and on a very limited income. Last year I was hit with $2,000 for emergency dental bills. Then my glasses broke. $500 for new ones. Was able to work those two bills into my budget. Barely. Then - new tires. Tighter but I was squeaking by. Two weeks ago, my car was stolen. Found (yea!) but spent a week at the garage being repaired. That bill is $830.52. I can't pay it. The mechanic allowed me to take my car on the understanding that I *will* pay the bill. Problem is: I have no idea how that's gonna happen. I could take money from my already tight food/medicine/gas budget but then what do I eat? I need help! $1,000 would pay the mechanic, and give me a little slack so that maybe I could get some of these other bills paid down. I deeply appreciate ANY help you could give!
Since my firrst entry, donations have reduced the garage bill to $300. This is HUGE! But there is still $300 to go and the other bills continue growing. I am so grateful to those who have donated. But PLEASE - could there be more donations? Am so close but still so far from paying this bill off.
Thank you!
