Please Help Freida & Seesmic Fix Up Their RV Home

update: I’m only $800.00 short to pay the bill. I can’t thank my supporters enough for caring about Seesmic and me so much! The transmission is in and then the bill is due. Any size donation would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I’m Freida, known as RVFreeDa on YouTube.

After nine years of traveling the USA from Alaska to Florida in my 1994 Fleetwood Coronado (WYSIWYG), my transmission has failed. I’m stuck in a parking lot in Kingman, Arizona. My RV won’t move. I’m not done yet, however; I love traveling the USA. I’m 77 and healthy, and there is no reason I can’t go on.

After having a panic attack because I worry about the heat for my 15-year-old German Shepherd, Seesmic, and myself, I spent days trying to find a repair shop and finally found one that will fix it.

When I sold my home 9 years ago, I followed my dream and turned 70 in Alaska. I drove my WYSIWYG (RV) towing my 1999 pickup behind. So instead of buying a new fancy RV, I bought this one from a friend for $500 and put a lot of money into it by installing solar and other upgrades. I love it and my pickup.

So basically, I’m asking for help because Social Security scares me, and I might have to survive without it. The mechanic says everything else is good.

The estimated costs so far are:

$3400 for the transmission

$1500 for labor

$800 to tow it

Total $5700

As much as it pains me to ask for help, I see no other way to raise the money. So I’ve set up a GoFundMe.

Please send whatever you can! I’m desperate at this point or I wouldn’t ask.
