Disabled Person needs help with Transportation
Donation protected
HI, MY NAME IS KELLY...I AM DISABLED, WITH CEREBRAL PALSY. I AM CONFINED TO A WHEELCHAIR. I AM ABLE TO GET OUT IN MY HANDICAP EQUIPPED VAN, WHICH IS WHERE MY STORY STARTS...4 YEARS AGO, I BOUGHT A USED 2007 DODGE TOWN AND COUNTRY HANDICAP EQUIPPED MINIVAN. IT COST $26,000 USED...THEY PUT A 10 YEAR LOAN ON IT...THE COMPANY THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM HAD GUARANTEED ME THAT THEY HAD FIXED ALL THE PROBLEMS IT HAD WHEN THEY GOT IT...BUT THEY DID NOT...NOT EVEN A MONTH AFTER I GOT IT, I WENT TO CANTON, AND IT BROKE DOWN AND WE HAD TO PAY TO FIX IT OUTTA POCKET. EVER SINCE THEN THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH IT. I'M REALLY CONCERNED THAT ITS GONNA BREAK DOWN COMPLETELY BEFORE I CAN EVEN PAY IT OFF BEING THAT I'M ON A VERY LIMITED INCOME. MY VAN IS A LIFELINE TO ME , WITHOUT IT I WOULD BE UNABLE TO GET TO MY DOCTORS APPOINTMENTS, AND ANY OTHER OUTING THAT I MAYBE ABLE TO ENJOY. THE FEW DONATION I GOT ARE REALLY APPRECIATED AND EVERY LITTLE BIT TRULY HELPS, AS I RECEIVE DONATIONS THEY ARE IMMEDIATELY SEND TO THE FINANCE COMPANY. I ASKED THAT EVERYONE PLEASE KEEP SHARING SO THAT I CAN RAISE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY THIS VAN OFF, IF NOT, AT THE VERY LEAST PUT A BIG DENT IN IT. I KNOW I CAN'T AFFORD FOR IT TO BREAKDOWN COMPLETELY BECAUSE I WILL STILL HAVE TO PAY ON THE LOAN AND BE UNABLE TO GET A REPLACEMENT! I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE I ABLE TO STAY MOBILE AND NOT HAVE ALL THE STRESS ON MY FAMILY AND CAREGIVERS. I WILL BE AND I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR ANY HELP THAT I GET! I KNOW THAT WITH FRIENDS ARE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. JUST REMEMBER NO DONATION IS TOO SMALL OR BIG, AND DON'T FORGET TO SHARE SHARE SHARE.. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR READING MY STORY AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR VERY KIND DONATIONS! -KELLY
