Cancer Survivor's Fight for Independence

Cancer Survivor's Fight for Independence

From Rebecca Jex

I lack the means to afford a vehicle or secure a loan, despite a decent credit score. This chance feels like divine intervention. If anyone can lend a hand, I'm eager to repay it in full.

My financial crisis is as follows: I'm 26 and living with my parents. All of my income is to pay for therapy. My mother is narcissistic and controlling. She is able to do so because I live with her for a mere $250 a month and she gets groceries sometimes. I cannot go anywhere without her knowing where I am. Growing up, I never had any friends. I have CPTSD from the intense bullying and sexual assault from my school environment. Circumstances have only in the last 4 years or so have given me one very special friend. They have been very patient with me and this friend I made has helped me feel more comfortable to be myself and do what's right even if it's uncomfortable. My mother doesn't like that I call her out for being hypocritical or controlling of my sister. Also, if I want to be anywhere but with extended family or my workplace, she will manipulate me into thinking I am slacking off, choosing friends over family, etc. I cannot get work anywhere else because I cannot afford a vehicle. There are no options for biking or public transportation as I am in a small town. I was a full time stylist working for great clips for two years until I was diagnosed with cancer. I had to go through chemotherapy and everything. Now that I am in remission, my body can no longer handle the constant physical labor. I can only work about 3 hours at a time and my body gives out. My friend (let's call them Jordan) is also trying to get out of debt and is living in a trailer and is closer to town. There is a spot open next to them. Jordan's good friend and business partner has his dealer's license and flips/sells trailers. He has found a trailer that came from a dealer who went bankrupt. This trailer is a prowler and only two years old, never been used. The tag on it says $47,000. Because Jordan's friend knows my situation, he is willing to sell it to me for $27,000. This dealer (let's call him John) also has a truck he got from the auction for $4,100. Because John likes and trusts Jordan so much, he told me he's willing to sell me both the truck and trailer for $30,000. Because I haven't had an income worth noting in the last few years because of cancer, I am unable to get a loan from anyone. Despite my 741 credit score. I believe this opportunity is from God because I have been trying really hard to be closer to Him and to be a better friend and sister. I have to learn to not be so afraid of people and lead my own life. The location the trailer will be is closer to town so I will be able to work more shifts! (Another reason I can only work three hours is because I have to walk 5 miles to the salon...no vehicle)

If you're able to pay me for this life starter kit, I will pay you back in full with interest.
