Oh Linda,
I'm so sorry you are going through this. I know it is just the pits. I sure hope the job comes through, even if it is 4-6 weeks from now. That would make you all feel so much better. I do understand though. My hubby woke up one morning with severe heart problems, such that he never worked a day after that. It was such a shock and it took us about 8 months to get his disability and medical retirement approved - so I truly understand the financial hardship.
Yes, of course there are others worse off than you - but what are friends for if you can't blow off some steam. It's good to vent to people who will understand. The times have changed, and even if the economy improves (which it will eventually) I don't think we'll ever be quite the same. This is not as bad as the great depression, but it surely has affected our lives in very profound ways!
I wish you didn't have to go through all of this - I hope you get some good new soon! Please tell your hubby to take his diabetes medicine (if he is prescribed medicine) and if not, then he MUST follow the diet they gave him. He will have bad bad consequences if he doesn't control his blood sugar!
Take care and come back more often!
