My Son Needs Therapy, but He Won't Be Able to Go if We Lose Our Car! Please Help.

My Story:

I am a single mother of an amazing teenage boy who has been dealing with some social anxiety issues lately. I have had to miss some work due to doctor's and therapy appointments to help him get more comfortable going back to school after doing online school all last year due to COVID. He is my number one priority in the world and because I have missed some work, I am behind on some of our important bills.

My main concern right now is that we could lose our car if I can't catch up with our vehicle payments. Without our car, I wouldn't be able to get my son to and from his doctor/therapy appointments, which would make it very hard for him to return to school. He's come so far in these past couple of months, and I believe that if he starts missing appointments, all of that progress could be undone. I earn enough to pay for all of our expenses regularly, but when I have to miss work, it causes us to struggle. However, if we can get caught up with these car payments, then it will give me the breathing room that I need to make sure that our bills are paid and that my son is getting the help that he needs. So, I'm humbly seeking help with our car payment for this month so that it's not repossessed and so that my son can continue to receive the treatment he needs.

We would be so incredibly grateful to all of the people whose generosity will allow my son to continue to get the therapy that he needs. Your kindness and compassion will not only serve as a reminder to him of the goodness that surrounds us, but also as a platform from which he can continue to grow. I know that this will have a very profound impact on him and on his future, and as a mother, it's difficult for me to even find the words to express how much that means to me. With that being said, I would just like to say a heartfelt 'thank you' to everyone who lends us their support.
