On 6/17 while riding my e-scooter i was struck from behind by a lady driving which sent me flying in the air and spinning about three times before crashing back down to earth right on my butt. Somewhere along the way I lost about anywhere from a quarter to a half pound of flesh off of my left requiring an ambulance trip and about a dozen and a half stitches on my left leg

Also another casualty of this collision was the absolute destruction of the rear tire of my scooter which is the motor tire and probably the most important part of the scooter, leaving it unridable.

After being discharged from the ER that night with no pain pills and having muscle stretched on muscle to sew together left me with probably the worst pain I've ever felt in my life and worried I was starting to get compartment syndrome so I hobble back to the ER the next morning and after parking my van a few blocks away in a usually completely free parking area between two cemeteries, about 15 or 20 minutes after getting to the hospital the city came through put up emergency no parking signs and promptly towed my vehicle which included the remnants of my scooter in it amongst other things.

I am currently facing a $414 bill to get my van back but I'm suing the city to try to get it released for free so I got that.

But I don't have is both enough money to live on and also to be able to transport myself around to take care of some of these things get my scooter get my scooter fixed and continue taking care of myself as I have been, without help.

I'm only asking for a little amount just to be able to transport myself around and self-sufficient again.

$100 was actually to me more than what I feel I would need so any little bit helps it doesn't matter if I have to rent a scooter or take the bus, other walking right now is quite painful pain is just the teacher, the lesson is deeper.

Here's a picture of my leg for any doubters
