I make my living with my ride-share car. 10 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $210. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $210 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $115
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $5
Thank you for reading my story.

Thanks for sharing this, Anika. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings
Keep going, Anika. Hope you make a strong comeback.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 3 people at work. Take care.
praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Nashik.
thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Nairobi donated after I showed her your page!
