Return of Sukoz but as RIAUSSIEJAKE

HI all,

Sorry I Have been gone so long. Here is the story of my adventure. On about

the 5th of December my husband started drinking and stealing my oxycontin and

other pain meds. One night I was trying to lock myself and the dogs the guest

room and he injured the foot I recently had fused and I could no longer put

weight on it. I am still not sure what is wrong with it. I am also dealing with

my old port incision which opened up and smells awful. The new site looks fine.

Anyway, a week before Christmas he continued to decline. Depression, sleeping

in a bed fill of feces and urine. I was scheduled for surgery but he wouldn't

get sober to take me and of course his family won't help because it is my

fault he drinks. Don't even ask about that one! So I packed a couple pairs of

clothes (hardly anything at all) put the three dogs in the car and headed for

Pa.

On the next day there was to be a family meeting on where to place my Mom

after her stroke. SO I stuck around helping to find placement and through the

holidays. I am now in Cumberland, RI. which is right outside of Providence. I

have some friends there one of which is disabled and they told be I could stay

here as long as I like...even forever. I will pay some rent but need to find

assistance since my only income is $505 a month for SSD. I want to get a divorce

but most places I called said they would only help if children were involved.

Anyone have any ideas? I Need money because I will have to pay for my own

health insurance a Medicare upgrade. The sad part was I realized in PA I

physical

could no longer take care of my two golden retreivers....my babies. I realized

if I truly loved them I would turn them over to Golden retriever rescue where

they will have forever families and not be scared ever again. I still have my

little Jake a mini Australian shephard.SO that is where I am now. Next week I

am set up with a PCP as well as an infectious disease specialist who

hopefully will get me in to an ortho pretty fast. I have talked to my husband a

few

times since I left. He continues to be depressed and drunk. My friends took me

out to dinner last night then we watched a movie and I said I felt like I was

on vacation and they said no this is how life should be. If anyone wants to

send me their email or forward this to someone who used to be on the list I

would

appreciate it because I lost all of my email adress book info. But I'm free!

If anyone knows of any charities that can help me get things I need (money,

food, clothes, I need some books but until I get the divorce straighted out I

can't get a library card due to the car being registered in both our names.

Especially if I end up in the hospital I will need books and video games to pass

the time but they all had to be left behind so I could fit the dogs in. I am

also looking for a reasonably priced pet store to buy supplies for Jake. So I

will take any suggestions.

Oh, and please don't forget to send me you names and emails so I can

reestablish my address book and don't forget to send this to others who may know

me

but left the list.

I love you guys and have missed you more then you can imagine.

Sue,

THANK GOD you finally got away!! I have been worried about you but didn't

know how to reach you. You absolutely did the right thing.

I don't know of any charities in RI since I am clear on the other end of the

country. I can recommend http://www.jbpet.com/ for inexpensive bulk dog

food. Of all the online dog supply places, they are the cheapest I have

found.

Hang in there and keep us posted.

well, there are a lot of sites for shelters and help in RI. Just search google

for " women's shelters rhode island " .

There is one called divorcesource.com that gives help with divorces. There are

Women's resource centers as well.

I would encourage you to check these out. There is a list of different shelters

and son on on the divorcesource.com site.

I know you don't want to go to a shelter, but they can help you find the help

you need.

I'm so glad you got away.

You go girl!!!!
