Hi there. I’m a Nana with an urgent situation that has been weighing on my heart. I have been trying to get enough money to pay for my car, which I call my Nanamobile because it was how I was able to get my 2 grandbabies and take them on outings and get from A to B with plenty of room for all the stuff they want to bring or get along the way. Since divorcing my son, the mother refuses to help with transportation other than meet me at the McDonald’s a few blocks away & we have to bus or if possible, I can pay an Uber to get us to somewhere quicker since there’s always a time restraint and a bus from me to there is at least an hour so we had only 2 visits in a month and we used to be together daily or as much as possible. I had been unable to get mail from the mother & she sent some back that contained checks of mine that were to pay for my car that has been sitting in the shop for a month because I can’t pay the bill. Technically its being called abandoned since no payment has been given for 30 days. They don’t believe me when I told them my situation & threatened to sell it to get the profits and use to pay for repairing it. I’ve tried daily for weeks to get loans or credit cards and only came out with $700 to give but it’s credit cards & 1 of them got returned to sender. The bill for rebuilding the transmission plus fixing cracked exhaust has totalled up to $3,600! I’ve gone crazy all day to find help and I ran out of options. I’m literally begging anyone for any amount of help you can spare to help me not lose my Nanamobile tomorrow if I don’t contact the mechanic tonight before 6pm & pay. It’s my only way to pick up my grandbabies and get as much quality time as possible. The mother claims to have the children’s happiness her 1st priority but it doesn’t show since she has the only vehicle between their dad and I but won’t drive more than 5 minutes to drop off the kids. They have cried to be with me & their dad & my heart is on the verge of breaking. I told my babies Nana was gonna be able to come get them soon but I didn’t expect to be given the ultimatum from the mechanic and had no clue about a 30 day abandonment claim he could file. I thought he was going to work with me still, but he seems to think I’m being untruthful and said make sure it’s cash or card because he don’t take checks. He thinks I would bring a check and it’ll end up bouncing I guess. Anyway, I’m desperately reaching out for help and am willing to pay back when I am caught back up on everything in a couple months to anyone who wants me to and can help me get together as much as possible in the next 2 hours. Any is so much appreciated no matter what, just for the kind gesture. Thank you all.
