Help Lisa Get a New Car

The past 4 or so years things have been hard, with a sick husband (bipolar and other health issues) he had to give up working on the mines and we experienced a huge decrease in pay so our finances were tight. January 2016 my only brother took his own life and my life changed. Experiencing the deepest grief, I was not able to work or function and then my husband’s father died suddenly a few months later which threw my husband into a deep grief as well. While we were struggling in silence we slowly had to do away with things like insurances and other essential payments we had that we could no longer afford. But as time has gone on we are slowly heading to possible bankruptcy. A few months ago, I had a small accident in my car and with no money my mother paid for the repairs. My mother is in no way doing well with money as she was required to pay for my brother’s funeral and other expenses to settle his estate because his wife did a runner after his death leaving it all to us to sort out. so, with her last bit of savings she fixed my car. So, on Tuesday 27th September I was in another accident this time my car is a write off, again my Mum bailed me out and paid for the tow truck. 

We are in serious financial hardship, we are behind on all of our essential account and are struggling to pay for other bills as well so we have no money to buy a new car and of course after 15 years of having car insurance that was one of the things we had to stop paying for.
