Help Sadia replace the rear axle and return to work
Sadia drives for a living in Sukkur, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $150 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $20
• Labor charges: $55
• rear axle replacement (parts): $75
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sadia
It's all in the list in the story. towing and inspection is the big one at $20, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
Hang in there, Sadia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
Thinking of you. Hope the shop reopens soon. Sent it to 8 people at work. Thinking of Sukkur.
