ALL HELL HAS BROKEN LOOSE - updated

UPDATE: I used my FOOD MONEY to purchase a refurbished HP computer from Internet Essentials (CVI Computers in Canada, as it turns out) for $150.00 - It took WEEKS to arrive, and was malfunctioning out of the box. After 3 days of constant problems, I am sending it back.

I simply must get a decent computer that meets my needs and works properly. My food budget isn't big enough to cut out enough to purchase a decent computer (which will cost at least $600, according to my research.) It's the last week of the month, and I am eating beans and tortillas as it is.

Can you help?

If so, please click the yellow 'DONATE' button to the right, underneath my photo. I will dedicate the novel to YOU!

PREVIOUS ENTRY:

My computer has been shattered to bits and i am pecking this out on my itty bitty kindle, so I will get to the point.

While I am physically disabled, (further hampered due to PTSD resulting from violent assault), and always open to donations via Pay Pal, every few years  I have a perfect storm and really need extra help most urgently. One cannot live on the razor's edge of penury without getting cut now and then.

My computer is in the junk heap, and I need a printer and some ink cartridges.

I am squinting to read as I need new eyeglasses AND sunglasses (very expensive for my particular eye disease. I will be completely blind if I live long enough.)

I haven't had any dental work in 15 years & need a surgical procedure for which I have no insurance.

My ancient car's power steering no longer works, I need new tires and an oil change, one of my little side windows is missing,  and did I mention the car is old?

As I calculate it, I need at least $3,000 to pull my life out of the emergency category but I am disabled & cannot work, so now is the time to beg for donations. It is humiliating, after a lifetime of hard work and self support, but it must be done. I have no choice.

i am most concerned about the computer, as I am writing a book and matching screenplay. I worked as a writer in my 20's and, while nothing is certain, I am at least equipped with experience in the television industry.

Please consider donating via PayPal, so I can pull myself out of the hole by working at the only thing I know how to do. Every little bit helps.

God Bless you all.

    1. I left you a message, below, but this little kindle is very hard to use, so i think it got saved to the wrong place!
