Overview

I am a 52-year-old widow and mother. I became disabled ten years ago. When I was a passenger in a car that ran a red light, the car hit a pole and I was air lifted from Evergreen and Chicago. I had to undergo ten surgeries, as a result of the impact from the air bag I had a blood clot in my heart that had to be removed. I receive long term disability and live of a fixed income.

My plans consist of taking care of my mother who has dementia, helping my sister get better after a stroke, and trying to keep my family close after my daughter was raped. To make sure that my children and grandchildren are safe as can be.

I need help with car repairs.The man who raped my daughter will be released at the end of the year. My daughter has seizures, and is still in therapy. I have physical therapy. I would like to be able to pick my daughter up from school each day, I physically cannot.

Meeting this need will help me because I will be able to ensure my child is safe. I will also be able to help my mother and sister with medical appointments. No amount will go unappreciated as it will be life changing for my situation.
