Need reliable/ dependable donated auto desperately

I am receiving SSDI, and working as an elderly part time (10 hrs a week:use bus) personal caretaker. Have had numerous med problems since 1982. Worked full time in I.T. for over 30 years, not thrilled to be on SSDI. Live with totally disabled common law husband, very low income-he is unable to work. Lost a fallopian tube(tumor/hemmorage) in 1982, was unable to bear a child due to endometriosis. Continued to work, took care of my mom (moved her in with me):dementia, CAD/CHF(30% heart function), 2 broken/replaced hips, diabetic. At the same time, took care of disabled husband:3 nervous breakdowns. Had a car at the time, took family care med LOA-unpaid from work. Developed diverticulitis yr.:2000, during caretaker period:life-flighted(hemmoraging:(3 1/2 pints blood in abdomen); had 1/2 intestines & 1/2 colon removed, clinically dead for 4 min. in helicopter. Brought back to life on roof of PGH, PA Hospital, spent 1 month in there,with respirator breathing 100% for me for 2 weeks. Put into drug-induced coma.Afterwards, got another job & continued to work, needed surgery again after 3 yrs. Repair of 3 abdominal hernias; unable to carry/lift more than 10 lbs., mesh net inserted into abdomen-1 step away from lifetime colostomy bag. Had to have 1985 Chevy Blazer junked, due to massive repairs/rusted, etc. Cashed in all retirement savings early to take care of family. Eventually had to file bankruptcy just to avoid foreclosure of small home. Need to work part time, now living pay to pay(SSDI). If anyone can help, I need an older donated small auto(sedan-automatic) to attend dr. appts, work p/t, grocery shop, etc. Cannot carry groceries over 10 lbs in weight(especially on bus), due to abdominal pains/flareup issues. 10 miles north of Pittsburgh, PA area. State cutbacks on transportation and bus routes due to economy. May God Bless Richly You. Email Address: toxictwins2@yahoo.com
