myself help: I never thought my world would ever change. - Help.com

I never thought my world would ever change.

I was doing well for myself. One day on the way home from work it did. I was hit by a drunk driver. I substained injuries which would keep me from ever working again. The sad thing, this drunk was an illegal alien from Mexico. He had no driver license, no car insurance, nor was his vehicle even registered. Though he was arrested. To this day I still don’t know what ever happen to him. That was 18 years ago. I lost everything, my home my wife, everything. It has been a struggle. Now I have a 10 year old daughter that I have raised alone. Ever since her mother abandon her at birth. Just walked away, left her in the hospital in another country. My daughter has been the best thing in my life. I would never have known what real love was until she came into my life. Living on a meger Social Security check of less then $700 per month. I have done the best I can in being a good role model and provider. Though I had to finally purchase a used vehicle last year in order to get her to school everyday, take her to the doctor and dentist. I now have to go begging for food, buying used clothes. I do give her the most important things, a lot of hugs every day, and telling her how much I love her. As well as being very involved in her school. I just need help now. I would like to be able to pay my vehicle off. They hit me with such a high interest rate, and made my payments to high and to long to pay off. If it was paid off, I could get the things my daughter needs, and she’s growing so fast now. Soon she’ll be maturing enough to need special things for what young girls need. Then I need a vehicle as well. I have regular doctor visits as well. I recently found out I have diabetes as well on top of all my other medical issues. But my daughter is my may concern. I do not use my vehicle for pleasure but for neccesity. I have never ask for help like this before. I have no one to turn to. For I myself was an orphan, and have no family. Which is sad fo my daughter. I’m not old old, but not young either at 58. Though I do look much much younger. lol….It worries me though I have nothing to leave her if anything ever happened to me. It would’ve been great if I didn’t lose my home after being hit by that drunk. Then I would’nt worry so much for my daughter. But it would lift a big burden off my shoulder if my vehicle was paid for. If you can help please contact me at (email removed) Anything would help. I would dearly appreciate your kindness. We pray everyday and thank him for what we do have and are grateful for that. I thank all of you for taking the time to read this. Thomas
