Hugs, Amanda... I'm just going to ditto what everyone else
is telling you. Pleas do know that you can trust and rely on this
wonderful group of gals to be here for you. My heart breaks to
hear what you are going through and that man has no decency
... to tell you to wait... of all the nerve! I can't believe anyone
could be so cruel and I would for sure take everyone's advise and
move on... finding help and professional advise from counselors.
and know that you are a wonderful beautiful delightful woman and
we all think the world of you.
more hugs... mj

I am so sorry that you are going through such a hard time. I know, I was
lucky, I married a man whom I loved and who was meant to be my life companion,
we had been married for 45 years when he died. So, I never had to go through
anything like you have experienced but I have had friends who have. My advise
to you is the same as my advise was to them. First of all, love and respect
yourself, be proud of who you are and what you are. No man, no one, is worth
killing yourself over. If you have proper self respect, you don't want to be
with a man who no longer wants to be with you, Move on with your life. Start
by looking at what type of help is available in your community for a woman with
disabilities and no income. Call, make appointments, get some help. The people
at your church or a church may be able to provide information on social
services available. Then meet with your mother and step father, tell them you
need their moral support as well as their financial support (if they had to pay
the bills even before your husband left, he wasn't even a good supporter).
Find something that you enjoy and can afford to do and add it to your routine,
even if it's just walking the dogs daily. Give yourself something to look
forward to each day. Bask in the love of your Chihuahuas, who will glory in
seeing you happy once again. And if you are a believer, pray for help and the
strength you will need to change your life. A life where you come first. Good
luck.
Gloria
