Help Paul Fix His Van for Wife's Dialysis

Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Paul. I'm ex-military, I'm Catholic, I don't smoke, I don't drink, and I don't do drugs. I used to go by the name Crazy Paul the Magician! I performed many children's shows and Adult shows all over Texas ! And many TV shows! But I lost a lot of magic illusions at a storage unit here in corpus Christi that sold my unit without my consent !I ended up suing them but I didn't get very much money and I lost thousands and thousands of dollars of magic props and magic memorabilia that could never be replaced !!! so that's why I don't do shows anymore now all I do is take care of my wife because she goes to the dialysis clinic. I didn't have a vehicle and Wounded Warriors helped me buy this vehicle! It's a 2001 Ford Windstar van. I had the vehicle for maybe a year and a half and the power steering pump, the power steering hose, and the serpentine belt busted.

So, I don't have any money to fix it once I pay my rent and my electricity and all my utilities. I'm only left with so much and I use that money to take my wife to the clinic. Usually, it's the gas money that's the crunch. I'm asking you if there's anybody out there that can help me, please. I'm trying to swallow my pride and ask for help because I don't know how to get the money to fix my vehicle. They told me that it'll be about $400to fix it and I don't have $400. So, I was hoping maybe somebody out there, if a thousand people could give me a dollar a piece, that would be great.

I do have a cash app fund but I don't know if I can use it with that. I could really use the money. I don't have any tools and I don't have any place to fix it. I had cancer a while back and the type of medication I take, I can't be out in the sun, so I'm screwed right there. And I really need this vehicle to take my wife to her dialysis every morning. I'm asking nicely if there's anybody that could please donate even a dollar, that would help me towards my goal to get my vehicle fixed. That's all I need is my vehicle. My wife is my main concern. We've been married for 26 years and she's the love of my life. She has seizures and Crohn's disease, heart failure, and kidney failure, and I take care of her because she's all I have now.

I need help and I'm asking if you could please help me. And if you could, thank you and God bless each and every one of you. If there were more people like you who donate, the world would be a much better place.
