As some here know, my personal life has been spiraling into an abyss. Today, we've learned that we are about to hit bottom.
I've been unable to work since 2007, but keep being denied disability. My husband lost his job in May and has not been able to find more work.(He has an extensive management and financial management background.) Our mortgage company, Provident Funding, refused to give us a forbearance on our mortgage while he looked. (You can only get a forbearance if you have a start date for a new job. Of course, you wouldn't really need one then....) Our health insurance costs $1800 per month for a family of three. On unemployment we can't afford much more. Last week we were told he had 6 more weeks of unemployment. That already had us in a panic. Today, the news is worse. We informed that tomorrow he receives his final check. By next week, we won't be able to afford food.
We have already received our first foreclosure notification. In a matter of months we won't have a home.
We won't be able to afford the health insurance, so I will lose the weekly IV treatment which keeps me somewhat functional.
We won't even be able to afford to pack up and move or store our belongings.
I haven't been able to repair or replace my computer and I don't know how much longer it will last, given that the hard drive is dying. Moreover, we won't have an internet connection. I can find connections elsewhere, I suppose. But, I think I'll be otherwise engaged.
So, I don't know how long until I disappear from Daily Kos, at least for a while.
I have no idea what the hell we're going to do to survive.
I'm scared.
UPDATE:
Per suggestions, I'm adding a PayPal link.
Thank you all for your warmth and support.
UPDATE II:
I have to go get my daughter. Then I'm off to an Occupy the Hood meeting. So, I won't back at the computer until late this evening.
Thank you all for your warmth, caring and support. It is so buoying. I can't begin to tell you what it means to me.
