My pickup: Đào's only way to earn a living
Đào drives for a living in Cần Thơ, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 10 weeks.

I make my living with my pickup. 10 weeks ago the rear axle 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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:
• Labor charges: $40
• rear axle replacement (parts): $130
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Đào. Small businesses are the heart of Cần Thơ. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
Sending love. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
