[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I have hit a really rough patch over the last year and a half. We have tried to get above water but I just feel like it's one set back after another. Our we have two kids 1yr and 2.5. They are still young enough to not know too much but I know they feel the stress.

We've had job losses, medical needs for me and my my DD that have just drained us in so many ways.

My brother is my only living relative and they are doing quite well bit they have 3 kids of their own and I just can't ask them for help. I have never got aling with my in laws. And they have never offered support of any kind to us. Even when my DD and I were in the hospital they never visited. Called. Nothing.

My DH wants to ask them if we can stay with them for awhile. This would break my heart but deep down I known it would alleviate some burdens.

Its not a pride issue. Trust me. Its more that they are so judgemental and if they said no. No to our children I feel that would be the last thing to break me in half. And I am trying so hard to hold on to everything. I just need someone to tell me it will all be OK. That we will be fine. [/quote]
