Salsbury

My husband and I were in a head on car crash when we were on our way to 
go to the YMCA for my physical therapy related to a herniated disc I 
recieved while nursing. Unfortunately I was almost able to return to work 
when a negligent person entered our lane of traffic and we were struck 
head on. Our finances had gotten very bad since I was out of work for 
almost 2 years and so I took the full coverage for my car insurance off 
and put only liability on it. Since the car accident I have been on 
disability and can not afford to buy a new car. My son gave me his first 
car last year however it is now on its last legs and my daughter is 
going away to college this aug. 27,06 and I do not know how I am going to 
take her there,let alone pick her up on her vacations ect. also since I 
live in a rural area their is not a very reliable bus service. I am 
still in a lawsuit over the accident and since the lawyer I had messed 
things up very badly my sons have had to spend all their extra money
  to pay for a new lawyer. It will now be another two years before the 
appeal even goes back to court. Meantime I worry about getting stuck 
somewhere and since my left leg/hip and both feet have alot of metal in 
them I have trouble walking.I would be overjoyed to recieve any car that 
is in good condition that I did not have to worry about breaking down 
at any time. thanks Darlene

I have been disabled since 2000 from a work injury ,had 4 knee 
surgeries, became depressed and put on medication, obtained bulging discs in my 
back due to severe weight gain from lack of exercise from surgery and 
depression. in April 2006 i had gastric bypass surgery at Danbury 
hospital. my life has changed since then so much, i am currently working with 
the bureau of rehabilitation services in Connecticut to return to 
work. this has been a goal since surgery. i have lost 63 lbs so far,my back 
feels better, and i am happy for the first time in 6 years. my problem is 
that in order for me to commit to full time work,i need reliable 
transportation. I want desperately to go off social security disability and 
return to the work force. Is there any help out there???

Bridgeport,

He is an super achiever. He has managed to stay committed to school and 
volunteering at the local hospital despite the desperate situations 
that he encounters daily. He has watched his Mom help his Dad as he 
recouperates from a terrible car accident.He has heard of funds slipping away 
from the family savings. He now may witness divorce. He remains 
trusting of GOD always. His creative self always smiling and continues keeping 
us all together with his wit and charm. He is affectionately referred 
to as "our glue". 
While we have at one time been blessed with transportation, at this 
time our cars have gone on to Car Heaven through several car accidents and 
just plain old end of road events. I would love to see my son with his 
own car so he can drive to and from college. He is a most deserving 
child. To be able to not have to worry with how we will manage without a 
car will just be one more reason I feel he will be able to concentrate 
and go on with his studies. He is more than giving and I feel now it 
should be his turn.
Mom

Hartford,

I think this person deserves a vehicle. she walks every day to and from
school to drop her child off.she deserves this more than anything in
the world.she also work but doesn't make much. she has no family in
Connecticut. she eats everything and dosent gain weight. the only thing she does
is sit,pray,and wait
