Thank you, all who donated.

I don't have words to express my gratitude to each and every one of you for your generosity and goodheartedness. My husband and I are soon to take the Vibe in to be assessed for the repairs and once we get this done, I can let you all know what went where and where we are from that point.

I have been having a tough time these past few weeks because everything has been collapsing in on me. My health is such that I am pretty sure I don't have too much time left, my heart is more and more 'iffy' and thanks to other issues, my ability to exercise and walk is compromised. I hate being like this, and I hate having to deal with all this crap over and over again.

I hope everyone has a good weekend. Some of you need it, I am sure. Some of you need it and don't even know it. Those are the ones that need to be reminded to do so. Mental health is just as important, if not more important, than any other aspect of one's health. It sets the 'guidelines' for the body's reactions.

I am so worried about my husband. His life is shit and I know it is because of me and my constant drain on our resources.

1. I wish they still made the Matrix/Vibe

I drove a Matrix for over 200K until it expired on the interstate. Replaced it with a Vibe until that one had to go.

Sorry, I got distracted. The point is... hang in there. We're pulling for ya!

2. I'm so sorry that you have to go through this.

Our elders deserve the REAL “Golden Years” we all hear so much about in commercials and assorted sales pitches.

REAL golden years. When you don’t have to worry about money (because systems are in place to make sure you’re taken care of, and decently so).
