Help Bart get back on the road

Donation protected
Hello loved ones, I want to personally say thank you to everyone who has reached out and helped so far. It warms my heart to know and feel the love of people who care so much. January 18 was a traumatic day for Luke and I. That morning there was a very freak and unexpected ice storm that hit the northeast. The Pocono Mountain region of Pennsylvania experienced tremendous loss of life and a very high number of accidents.
We hit an undetectable patch of black ice, lost control  flew off the road, and were in a terrible rollover.
Miraculously, we both walked away but not without injury.I fractured a vertebrae in my back and Luke had a concussion. My truck was obviously totalled in the accident, and I only had liability insurance so I will have to scrap it.  I worked very hard to buy that truck and to start my own buisness De Riggi Fabrication, my welding and design company. Also my son Luke lives over a hundred miles away, and without trasportation it is very difficult for us to see each other. This last detail is the most painful part of not having a vehicle, the loss of freedom to see my son.  I strive everyday to be the best father, and individual I can be in the world. However in this time of hardship being without a truck is hurting my buisness and my relationship with my son.
If anyone could find it in there heart to help by contributing to my cause, it would surely be appreciated. I assure you it's going to a very worthy cause, and I would be indebted to you all. God bless and keep you.
