My 2000 Ford,Windstar needs a new alternator,shock absorbors on the rear end of the car.Also,it needs engine work done on it as well.I do reciecve SSI for my disability. But, it's not enough for the car repairs.I'm looking for a free grant or free car repair work for the disabled.Just point me in the right direction for the help I need.

I was a college student before the accident. Now I'm just trying to get through everyday. I was shot 3 times in October in a random drive by on the interstate. The people were never found. I can walk now, but I have a rod in my leg, can't feel most anything below my knee, and so many other things. I can't run because of the pain, and both my knee and ankle are locked. I'm trying really hard to make it through each day, but not a day goes by that I don't shed a tear. I know I'm lucky to be here, but sometimes I feel like it's not worth it. I can't look at myself anymore because of the scars from all the surgeries. I don't like going out any where anymore. I used to be very outgoing (not the party type) and loved hanging out with friends, playing tennis, riding atv's, riding horses, and so many other things.

I am so depressed right now, I wish I could just go to sleep and never wake up again
