[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We downsized last year to a one bedroom apt. We were renting so thankful for not having a mortgage. We don't qualify for asst. And I had to stop working when cancer returned. And my DD has leukemia. My DH  was let go.

Trust me moving in with my in laws isn't something I ever WANT or would CHOOSE to do pp.

In my op I meant Im close with my brother and would ask for help but I dont want to burden them. My DH wants to ask his parents if we can stay with them. They are retired and have a huge house. That's his reasoning. [/quote]

DH should ask his parents since they are retired and have a huge house. You need to swallow your discomfort and pride and do this for your family. I understand how hard this must be but you really have no choice at this point. Your brother may be in the position to lend you money but not to take your family in, since he has five people in his house already. Just keep telling yourself it is TEMPORARY and you will be able to get back on your feet sooner if you accept help now. [/quote]
