I have been abused, and abandoned by my husband I am sick and cannot work

I got sick a few months ago and my husband abandoned me.  But, not before he verbally and mentally abused me by name calling and saying very hurtful damaging things to me.  Tonight as I write this I am facing hunger, I have been eating dogfood.  My utilities are being cut off on 07/20/07 and I have no one to help me.  My husband took all the money, stole my jewelry which I could have sold for money for my meds in which I am now out of, daily I grow more desparate and I have no one to help me.  I have tried all local agancies even our womens shelters are full.  please help me I am trying to get some work to do at home if I can get help to get me over the hump and keep my utilites on for just 30 more days I can work on the web and make money.  But in 5 days all my hope is gone and I will have no where or nothing to believe in any more.  This is the first time in my life and I am 47 years old I have reached out for help.

Hang in there please! I know it is so hard. I have been abandoned by my husband the last 2 yrs but he has not filed and has used me and kept my hopes just enough alive that he might come back, that I have allowed him to drain me even more. I am facing major health issues and no money as well. I feel so hopeless too, but I know others have gone thru what I am going thru and have survived. Please see if your area as an InterFaith Hospitality Network. This is a way that churches host homeless people and help them get on their feet. See if you can find if they are in your area. Check online. You are not alone and I will pray for you. L
