Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Sending love, Priscila. Shared it with a few friends. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Mombasa.
How is Priscila doing now?
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Priscila.
Sure. The biggest one is suspension replacement (parts), $180. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
So sorry you're going through this, Priscila. I hope things turn around soon. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Guadalajara

Wishing you peace, Priscila. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
Hang in there. Hope you make a strong comeback!
Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.

Small businesses are the heart of Guarulhos. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Dodoma.
