Hi, my name is Victoria, I am 33 years young with a 10 year old son. I have had one stressful week!!! Two stressful weeks if you count my phone randomly breaking and turning into a paper weight!
On a very serious note, it is never easy to ask for help, especially when it comes to money and donations. But, here I am asking for help while trying not to feel selfish and guilty for needing others help! (Which isn't easy). Also, asking for help is very hard, especially when you are so used to doing everything on your own!
Here's my (long) story....Let's start with I am OK and my son was not in any of the two accidents thankfully!!!
Within the same week I got into two different accidents, one being my personal car that I had just gotten back from the shop 3 days prior after it being at the shop since June and the other being my work car.
Both cars are deemed totaled and unfortunately the insurance that I had does not cover any of the damages (even though the accidents were not considered my fault). This is a huge reason why I'm here asking for help. I need help getting a (new to me) vehicle and still be able to go to work, take my son to his Veterinarian in Training class (he works with animals hands on and wants to be a vet when he gets older), and his basketball practice.
I've had my 2007 F150 for 11 years. I got it when I was 4 months pregnant. My truck became my other child but it seemed to be in the shop more than on the road. Every time it went to the shop to get fixed I would buy something to personalize it so I couldn't get mad that I was putting more money into the truck for it to get fixed yet again with a new issue. When all said and done, I could have gotten a new 2023 truck with the amount of money that went into my truck over the last 11 years. I LOVE(D) my truck. All wasted money it seems like now due to the accident. Especially after the price tag I paid when I just got it back to only enjoy for 3 days!
My work car which was a 2013 Honda pilot was a wonderful car that had a good amount of repairs done to it too recently. Normal wear and tear type of repairs due to the mileage on it. But none the less, it feels like wasted money at this point due to the accident also.
As I mentioned in the beginning too, my phone randomly broke as well causing the screen to turn all black and it won't turn back on so not only do I have to get a car but I have to also get a phone.
If you have read this far again I am asking for help because unfortunately I do not have the money needed to get a proper reliable safe car that will last and not cause me to continue to have to continuously repair the car.
I appreciate you taking the time to read my story and even if you are not able to donate prayers work and good positive vibes! Please share and pass this along to everyone you know!
If you did donate, whether it be somebody who knows me personally or somebody I have never met, I thank you kindly and extremely from the bottom of my soul! I truly appreciate the help.
Please help my son and I get a safe reliable car!
