I JUST NEED $300 MORE FOR USED MOBILITY SCOOTER
Donation protected
My name is Lynn and I am 65 years oldor should I say 65 yesrs young my issues is, I have debilitating arthritis in my knees and ankles making it almost impossible to get around using even a rollator walker anymore as well as severe asthma making it even harder. I am unable to get to the grocery store without assistance.
I still work but, with the increase in the cost for such things as medication I need, food, rent, just about EVERYTHING it's hard enough to afford the necessitates needed, let alone impossible to afford the electric scooter I desperately need. Having this would make my life more bearable and simpler.
I cannot even do my own laundry or shopping for food. My daughter helps when possible but, she has a schedule that changes all the time. She does make sure she is off for my schedule medical appointments when needed but, even that is a struggle with her boss.
I was in the hospital last year 2022 for 3 months due to my asthma and mobility issues. Did a lot of rehab and was able to then get around wirh a walker which I never used before.
Then ended up In the hospital again this year 2023 with a kidney stone that was 1.5 cm and required surgery to deflate my kidney and had a procedure called a Nephrostomy and still recovering from that. I was in the hospital and rehab for 2 1/2 months and still worked to stay mobile. These past 2 years have taken a toll and the scooter would be a life saver. I'd be able to run errands, the grocery store is close enough where I would be able to go without having someone taking me and the same with the laundry. I just do not want to depend on others to help me. I want my independence back.
Please help with whatever you can. Sharing is a great way to get the word out. I've even lowered my expectation about getting a new scooter I found a nice used scooter that has a good warranty still so I'll go for that I don't want to be greedy.Your kindness is much appreciated. Again whatever you can help with. ❤️
Thank you from the bottom of my heart Hugs and stay safe . You're all the best
