**Personal note...I know what it feels like to lose everything.
Approximately 8 years ago, my ex went crazy, my child was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD, we went through a bankruptcy, I got depressed, we sold our house (where my son had been raised for the past 10 years), the ex got more and more abusive and finally, we got divorced. We had been together for over 20 years and married for 16 of them.
It sucks to be poor again. But, I'm grateful that my son is doing alot better. That we are safe, have a roof over our heads, and usually have enough food to eat. I've remarried. We've been married for a year last October 16th. We struggle financially. It really sucks to be poor. But, it's the worse when you are afraid for child's safety and making sure he has food to eat. Yet,
no one pays attention. I hope that all those that are just beginning this roller coaster ride that we call life, make it out with a lot less bruising than me.
Peace,
