We need as much help as we can get, I cannot stop crying because we cannot catch a break. Please!! Sincerely Gwen, Ember, and Kimmy @gwennspacey @emberbrekker @spideygirl

We call this "Stranded in the middle of fucking nowhere." #ourweekendwasspecial #thisisourlife

Two-part UPDATE!!!! Thanksgiving: Well for Thanksgiving we didn't go anywhere due to our situation we had a wonderful sandwich that our dearest Kimmy made for us and we went to sleep early. We didn't do very much and it was a very emotional time for all of us. We wanted to list a few things we were thankful for even though we are at a small stage in our life. Eachother: with out one another we all would not have survived to see this years holiday season. Stella and Nova: with out them our situation and things we went through would of been much worse, they have improved our lives probably just as much if not more than they benefited from it. Our home/the Bus/Lilly: So many reasons I cannot account for. But for being there when we needed a home. (Yes, we named her Lilly) Our extended families: no matter how estranged and sometimes nonexistent And You Tumblr: What you as a community have done for us is beyond anything we could ever hope to give back, from emotional support to financial support. You all are amazing, wonderful, and full of surprises! We try to help as much as we can when we are able, and you guys have shown us, we are not alone in that endeavour. PERSONAL UPDATE: I hate to ask especially on black Friday, but we currently need $360 to pay off Kimmys license ASAP so we can make sure the bus isn't towed and drive/move to California for my job interview, by the first of December. Kimmy has the cheapest license to reinstate and Gwen won't be able to reinstate her license till after the 4th of December. Towards the end of December, we hope to be getting some money from a family member that should definitely help us fix the bus and get my license back. I got a second interview for an assistant manager position in Santa Cruz county. Just near the water I might add!! It is looking to be a good thing and I am excited but as I said we need the temp tags for the bus, rv insurance, and Kimmy's drivers license. We have a plan, we just need the finances. Gwen's next paycheck is the 1st of December. We are going to have to wait another 3 days past the typical 2 week pay period. So we are super strapped for Money till then and we really hope the police don't bother us!!! Please we need support and help, I know you all probably spent most of your savings and bank account on Christmas shopping, but please anything helps!! Our PayPal is [email protected]! Thank you all so much!! I hope this season of holiday celebrations and traditions is peaceful, safe, and full of those good warming feelings!!! From our family to yours, Kimmandra, Gwen, Ember @spideygirl @gwennspacey, @emberbrekker

UPDATE: STELLA IS HOME!!!!! We finally got her home, our family is back together. It has been a hell of a day, and we have suffered through so much anxiety and panic just to get to this point. We are currently, broke. But is doesn't matter now that we have our family together. But that doesn't mean we are out of the fight yet. We still have to pay for the next few visits every 2 weeks and her next appointment is on December 27th. They will take x-rays and see when she needs to have the brace removed. This is a super delicate type of brace so we are not going to be moving the bus a lot. Because of how much the surgery cost to get her back, we no longer have the funds to really buy food. Basically we need as much help as we can get. If you all could help us just eat for Christmas that would be amazing!! Our PayPal is [email protected]! Thank you all so much, From our little family, to you and yours, Gwen, Kimmandra, Ember, Nova and Stella (as seen above)
