Please DONT fund me.

I have 🐝 n a member here since 2008. A year after my huband died. I used to post regularly, but all those old posts disappeared. Then I read but did not post after trump was appointed. I fell into a deep depression. So anyway Ive been around for while and I have been proud of this community that is always so going and kind towards other.

I jut got back from visiting my sister in Oregon, not having flown for over twenty years, my fear of flying thwarted me, but I hadn’t seen her in three years and I missed her. We have always been close. She offered to buy me a plane ticket.

About ten minutes after I got back from my trip pI had a head on collision with another car. My fault going the wrong way on a one way street. I remember nothing about the day, flying airports....
My dog was in the .car and she hit the windshield.
The airbags deployed. My car is totaled. My daughter had to take me to appts this week, but she is a full time college professor and can’t always do it.
I thought about asking you all to help me get a cheap car. I told my daughter I needed one, don’t like the loss Of independence.
“Mom, with your rheumatiod arthritis getting worse and your lack of muscle control, do you think you should be driving anymore?”
She’s right. At this point I’m a menace to society. Getting old sucks.

Don’t fund me
