Please help me replace my car after a terrible accident

Hi my name is Jess and I am an amputee and mother to a beautiful 22m old girl. As part of my journey I help support other amputees come to grips with the changes and challenges ofntheir new lives. As part of this, I signed up to be a peer support volunteer and participate in training offered by the artificial limb clinic.

On Saturday 8th Novmber on my way to training i had a major car accident in which I have written off my car. I have come around a corner on the Nelson side of Rai Valley and have hydroplaned and lost control of my car, in the chaos I have clipped another cars rear bumper, rolled over the bank and landed upside down on the side of the river. I was blessed that there was traffic passing that stopped and helped me get out of my vehicle and comfort me till I left in the ambulance. To get back up the 50ft bank the fire brigade harnessed me and placed a ladder down the bank and I climbed back up it. I was told by onlookers that they were suprised I.was alive, let alone walking, so I have been very blessed by God.

I am lucky that I have full comprehensive car insurance that will payout for my car and cover the costs of the the other cars repairs, but will not be enough to purchase a new vehicle or cover medical costs that will help with my recovery.

I am a single mother with no support or contact from my child's father, and like most are already financially stretched so trying to find extra money to purchase a car is impossible.
