It's been almost a year...why are we still struggling?

Well, it's hard to believe that it's been almost a year since Dakotah's spine surgery (11/16/10).  She is doing FABULOUS!!!! I am so grateful!  She got a new wheelchair - luckily it was covered 100% by my health insurance.  She's still waiting to receive ANY kind of assistance here in Florida; however, I'm not holding my breath because they are cutting funding to many programs within the Agency for Persons with Disabilities so I doubt they'll be picking up anyone from the waiting list any time soon. 

Unfortunately, I have to start our "Dollar for Dakotah" campaign again.  I found out about a week ago that I have to have $1400 worth of dental work done on my bottom left side.  I'm not thrilled but it isn't elective, it has to be done.  :( 

We still have the paypal account - dollarfordakotah@gmail.com that can be used.  If it is sent as a gift, Paypal won't charge the sender or receiver. 

I have to try to raise $1000 at the most to make a wheelchair van payment and then the rest will go toward bills since I have had to take bill money and pay the dentist.  Again, we won't really have a Christmas, but as long as we have a roof over our head with electricity, groceries in the fridge, and my van so I can transport Dakotah, I am happy!!!!  

ANYTHING would help though - $1 adds up if the word gets out there and gets passed around. 

Thank you in advance for any help anyone can give us!!!! XOXO
