I am Navy Gold Star Mom of EOD1 Joseph Adam McSween , KIA April 6, 2007 in Hawijah, Kirkuk, Iraq.
On June 15, 2011 I was on my way to Morris, Illinois for the Illinois Freedom Run Event held at the Middle Eastern Conflicts Walls, while driving through Coffee County, Tennessee toward Nashville. There was a very bad rain storm and my car hydroplaned from the west bound lane of I- 24 to the east bound lane and a quarter of a mile off the interstate into some trees. I am ok accept I have to have surgery on my left ankle , however, my car was totaled and I have only liability insurance because my car was eleven years old and paid for, I now do not have a car. I am on disability so I do not have the income to buy another car. I do not have any family to help me out so all I know to do is put my information out for all, incase there just may be some one or group that might could help me. I do not own anything that I could sell or use to get any kind of load nor do I have the income to make loan payments. I do not event draw enough money a month to pay for all of my medication. The volunteer work I do and the events I go to, to honor my son and others is what get me through each day and with out a car I will be confined to my apartment. So I hope one of your groups or maybe some other group or person you may know of will be able to help get another car for me. It is very hard for me to send out this request, but I have to do something and there are two answers by sending this request, yes or no, however, if I don't send out the request there is only one answer which is no.
I have sent this email to many in hopes that you will also send it out to any group that you know might be able to help me. Thanks to all of you for your help.
Clayton Murwin Okay I would like everyone that is in this group to put our heads together and see what we can do to help this Gold Star Mom! I just got off the phone with Mrs Mcsween, we spoke for nearly an hour. I am fully comfortable in helping this patriot and Gold Star parent. We dont just help the troops here we are about the families as well! Lets see what we can do to help Mrs McSween get a new car or even a good used car that is safe and road worthy . I am sure we all know enough people that we can make this happen. So lets get to work give some suggestions . If someone here knows someone that has a decent car that they were looking to sell why not offer it as a gift to this Gold Star mom so that she can continue to do the work she does as a volunteer to support the military her son proudly gave his life for!
