89. So sorry to hear what you are going through!

Been close to homeless myself. Years back we had to pawn just about everything we owned of value to get a place we could afford. It was a scary, uncertain time followed by years of living on the edge.

Things eventually turned around for us, but the experience of those long grinding years really heightened my awareness of the class war in this country.

So don't blame yourself.

It's the bastard politicians on BOTH sides of the aisle in Washington DC who are at fault and who have spent years and years at the bidding of the rich, corporate america, banks/Wall Street at the expense of the middle class and working class. :grr:
