Bob's tragic accident

Donation protected
It's gone from bad to worse for this dear couple! Cindi was in a hit/run accident that totalled her car. She had gotten out of the hospital herself and was staying in a motel near the Spinal Unit where Bob is. She went to Murphys to get the car dug out from the snow and she drove it down to San Jose so at least she had a way to get from the motel to the hospital to see Bob. A friend has loaned her an RV she can park at the hopsital for 6 weeks so that will help with expenses but ultimately she will have to get a place to live, both for her and for Bob, AND a new car. She appreciates all the help she has received. Here is the story I posted originally:  Artist urgently needs help.  Her husband was just in an accident and his spinal cord was crushed and he is a quadriplegic.  She is in a rehab hospital because of serious lung and back problems but hopes to get out soon. She can’t go back to their isolated mold-infested 100-year-old cabin in the mountains because it is snowy, cold, drafty and dusty.   She can’t climb the 11 steps up to the cabin because of her spinal problems, and she isn’t strong enough to feed the wood-burning stove that heats the cabin.  She needs funds to rent  an apartment near the hospital where her husband is.  She is a talented artist who has shown in galleries all over the world, but her back issues have kept her from painting for the last six months, and a series of bad circumstances have left them short of funds. Cindi was  a cowgirl in her youth and still has that Wild West can-do attitude. She has faced many changes and obstacles in her life but this is beyond belief. Bob has been a loving and hard-working husband and now he will not be able to support her, financially or emotionally. They have been hard-working citizens who have fallen on hard times through no fault of their own.  They are devoted to one another. Can you help her get into an apartment?
