My husband left me 3 days ago, I found a note that he is under pressure and cannot handle the stress anylonger. I love him so much. I had no idea anything was wrong. I am just heart broken. But now the biggest problem is that I have three small boys. I have never worked in our ten year marriage, I do not have any skills. I have no way to pay the rent or even the utilities bills, come to think of it. I cannot even make the car payment. I am sick, I have no clue what to do. He took everything out of savings except for $325. I went to public aid yesterday, they said they could give me food stamps, but that is all. How do I pay the rent? Utilities? Where can I find a job that pays more then $6 an hour? How can I afford to pay a babysitter? How could he have done this to me? I am so scared !!!! I have no family here, my Father lives in Arizonia, but he is on a limited income. What do I do? Where do I start? Where do I come up with rent for the 15th of the month. He was my life.

I don't know which state you live in, but I have a question for you ... do you have a church that you go to? If you do, tell the pastor what's going on. They should help with transportation, temporary help with rent, utilities, food and baby sitting while you look for a job. I think most states have a program that helps or pays for childcare. Also, parents might be able to send some temporary money? I'll be praying for you.

First off, your church would be willing to help any way they could. Go to the utility companies and ask them to guide you to where ever there is a company that helps families with utility bills when they have little or no income. And don't be ashamed to ask for help. Accept the food stamps, and whatever else you can get until you can get on your feet. You will be able to make it. My prayers are with you.

You could also try going to your Town Hall or City Office. I know they will sometimes help with heat and other utilities. Also tell the public aid people that you want child support. Tell them everything. Your church should help too. They are really good at that. Good luck.
