My wife Michelle and I have been married for 3yrs and we decided to go on a road trip to surprise her family, whom I hadn't met since we got married. When we got there, we found out that her daughter was going to have surgery in a couple of days and turns out that we thought our timing had been perfect, so we could help with our 2yr old grandson, who we had only just met. Well, it wasn't long and our truck broke down, it started pouring out transmission fluid we had thought that the gasket in the pan had blown out, so we took the pan off and found little chunks of rocks in the pan. Someone had put a rock down the dipstick and messed up our truck. We have gotten jobs but we just arent making enough to get it fixed or to get a different vehicle. Now it has been 3 months, we still can't afford to get our truck fix. Her daughter told us to get our stuff and get out, because we where trying to get enough money together to fix our truck and she had other ideas. Luckily we had talked to a neighbor and are able stay with temporarily. But, we really need to do is get back home and continue with our lives. We have thought about getting a bus ticket, but we don't want to leave the dog that we spent so much time and energy helping get him back to health, he was very neglected. He was kept in a kennel from 12 weeks old to 19 months, in a kennel that wasn't big enough for him. He is now a member of the family and we would not be able to take him on the bus with us.
We are asking for help coming up with the money for a vehicle to get us home. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Any money collected is going to go towards a vehicle to get us home. As far as the truck that we drove here in, it is being taken to the junkyard and all the money from that is going towards a different vehicle.
Please help us with our goal and thank you in advance to all that help.
