My delivery van: Taslima's only way to earn a living
Without my delivery van Taslima can't work; a $200 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 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 $200 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $95
• Labor charges: $30
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $40
With deep gratitude,
Taslima
