My motorbike: Neelam's only way to earn a living
Neelam drives for a living in Nagpur, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 8 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $205. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $205 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $110
• Labor charges: $55
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $5
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
