Description
My current car no longer meets my needs, which have changed, and when I sold it I didn't even have enough money to buy another car that I could drive. My disability is changing but I'm still independent most of the time. I'm the mother of two children with very few resources, as I receive aah and even for my youngest (aeeh), but obviously these resources are already insufficient to live decently. Of course, we're not entitled to support such as cmu-c, transport solidarity etc... even the school grant isn't at the maximum level. It's not so much what we get, but the money that leaves the home. Everything has become horribly expensive. What's more, with the disabled adult allowance I'm not entitled to any car loans, for example. Even if I had a suitable monthly payment. But in my region the car is vital and transport is too difficult for me. Not to mention the cost!
I need a car with more driving aids than the one I have now, so that I'm less tired and can drive longer distances. And a car for the city. I don't go on holiday very often because of my state of health.
And there's another problem: the hospitals are in the ZFE! My current car has criterion 3! I've already had countless parking fines with disabled parking cards that I've had to pay only to never be reimbursed! (Reimbursed only once in a small commune).
So I urgently need to find a new car that costs more. And with lots of driving aids: automatic gearbox, parking assistance, cruise control etc...
Soon I won't even be able to go to hospital! And it's far too far for me to get there by public transport! Social security reimburses the fare but doesn't take multiple disabilities into account. And you have to imagine that if you're fasting and possibly have a full bladder for an examination, for example... Transport will already be difficult for an able-bodied person, so what about someone who is ill?
It's quite difficult to condense the sole need for a car, which is not a whim but absolutely vital in my region. Care is far away, so you have to travel to Paris, but I live a long way from the capital! For me, almost 100 km is the end of the world.
Thank you for reading this and I hope I've moved people who can afford a small gesture. From one small gesture to the next, perhaps I'll have a little more than the sale of my car and will be closer to my goal.
I haven't talked too much about my state of health and finance, but you can imagine that daily life must be very difficult. And I'm not asking for money for any treatment. I've already had the most recent one, which is ineffective, and many operations have been impossible on me. I'm surviving for my children, that's the main thing. I'm managing to get by even if it's not easy every day, and on this side it's better to be positive than to wither away.
