Hard Times

[Guest guest]

Dear Sue, I feel very bad for you. You never know what life is going to hit

you with.

Your husband must be devastated as well as you. When your used to having

insurance and then not have it is so very difficult. I believe cobra can last

18 months but he needs to ask the company. It's also expensive.

In the age group we're in we need to look at other options. Disability, or

whatever. I need to do that too.

Sit back and think about your options before you decide to sell your house.

If you need to that then do it...Take care of YOU...Sue M

Sue, I'm so glad that you posted to the group. This is an amazing group and

I know hundreds of prayers and good thoughts will be coming your way. I know

it is so hard to keep a possitive attitude at times like this and we tend to

question " Why me? " I don't think we ever get an answer to that one.

I just want you to know that I will be sending lots of prayers your way and

if I can help in any other way, please let me know, you can always email me

privately.

Lots of loving hugs,

Sue,

Yes, definitely, I will keep you and your husband in my thoughts and

prayers right now. I'm sorry that so much is happening. Take care

of yourselves.
