Most of the things I want are under fifty dollars. Also, we have a handicapped daughter. She is 12 and has mixed quadraplegic cerebral palsy. She uses a wheelchair and has limited use of her hands and legs. I take care of her, including homeschooling her, while hubby goes to work. So, while I don't bring home a paycheck, I work plenty hard. Our daughter can't sit or stand unassisted, she cannot feed herself, etcetera, but is very smart.

It saddened me to read your post regarding your daughter. Just as it makes me ask "why" every time I see a child of any age who is less fortunate than many. If I may be a bit presumptious at this point IMO you deserve a fleet of camaros for your love and dedication to your child.
