am forwarding onto you. If anyone has had a smiliar experience or knows of

anyone who has, it would be much appreciated.

HI, my only knowlege is that it is best not to leave the house unless

you want to lose teh house. If you leave, then your husband is most

likely to get it. Local legal supports may help or even local

autism/aspergers support services should be able to direct you to low

cost or free services. Hope this helps some.
