neversremedy8hi, this is raven's mom. she asked me to post this for her because she is currently unable to get to a computer and is on her way to a mechanic's trying to sort out her car troubles.
those of you who keep up with her journal will know about the accident she had on friday. fortunately, both she and ana are fine (other than some aches and pains in raven's case), but she has been told that the repairs to her car - which she's had for only 2 weeks - will run $1,200.
this is an impossible amount of money for her to raise. she had to spend her entire savings just to get the car towed out of the ditch. she has a new job and a new residence, far from her work, and would have to commute 5 hours per day by bus. she MUST get the car repaired somehow.
as most of you probably know, her father is a tight-fisted sob who only spends money on himself, so it will be a miracle if he helps in any way at all. my savings is currently dry except for 300 Euro that i have to put towards a 1,200 Euro root canal i need tomorrow. (i've been in pain since saturday, so it's gotten to the emergency stage and must be taken care of.)
IF YOU READ NOTHING ELSE, PLEASE READ THIS:
raven is in trouble and needs financial assistance. if any of her friends can loan her any amount of money at all right now it would be a blessing. 12 friends donating $100 each would be ideal, but any amount you can spare is urgently needed right now. even if it's only $5 or $10. so, if you can help, please send your donation to her at paypal (http://www.paypal.com) at mme.calico@gmail.com.
i'm sorry if this isn't as eloquent as it might be. i'm currently taking sleeping meds to help quell night terrors, and i had already taken them when raven phoned.
