Oh Mary, I don't know where to start--I'm sorry you have to cope with all of this at once. I'm amazed that you've had so little absence from work as bad as you feel--you must be really pushing it, trying to keep things together.
About the car, the suggestion to call the manufacturer can't hurt. About the cost, out here (WA state) our old Dodge just died because it needed a new transmission at $2300, but with the transmission in it would have only been worth $600 or so. I'm sure that was for a rebuilt one, so the price is in line with out here. But do check around if you can.
Why is it that when we feel so rotten is when we often have to "take charge" and tackle stuff that is difficult even with an alert bright brain. Plus I know it is so hard just to work full time (plus you go to school on top of that) and get any of this stuff (insurance, health appointments, car) arranged or dealt with during business hours when you yourself work.
I've read your posts for a few months, but not your earlier ones. Do you have family or friends who are able to help you when you are so sick or help you with the logistics of chasing down this stuff that needs doing?
I think of a sweet song written by Tom Hunter: "Tonight I'd like you to rock me to sleep, I'd like you to sing me a song. I'm tired of trying to figure things out, I'm tired of being so strong." I know many of us wish we could be right there with you rocking and helping. I hope that our online wishes help a little.
Very best wishes,
Lisa I.
