My school-run minibus: Vignesh's only way to earn a living
Without my school-run minibus Vignesh can't work; a $50 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $50. 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 twelve 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $50 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $15
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours
Wishing you peace. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Ekurhuleni but we're thinking of you.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Kozhikode.
