Where do I turn???

I desperately need help! I have no money left. Rent is due, I HAVE to retain an attorney, I am so scared. I just want to take care of my little boy and provide the world for him. It is such a struggle when I can barely provide a roof, or have someone help me fight for custody. I am trying to trust that everything will be okay, but I don't know where to turn.

I am so humbled in asking for help from anyone.. but I know one day I will be able to pay it forward.. So, anything would help.

Be blessed and thank you.

I am a 47 year old mother of two.  I have worked hard all of my life and lived comfortably.  I have a college education and speak Enlish and am fluent in Spanish.  i live in Washington Court House, Ohio about an hour outside of Columbus.  It is a small rural town with very few jobs.   I was commuting to Columbus for work however; my car gave out.  Driving two and 1/2 hours was just to much for it.  I am trying so hard to find a job in this town but have come up with nothing.  I have had two open heart surgeries in my life, one at five years old the other at 38.  I will need one more in order to replace my pulmonic valve.  Although I am married and my husband works every day of his life, he just does not make enough to keep up with the bills.  I tried to get assistance through job and family services however; we are not 130% below the poverty level.  We get no help at all.  We have kept up on our rent of $600.00 per month, our electricity and water however; there is nothing left for food or other necessities.  My daughter is 15 and my son is 17.  It is so hard to watch them suffer.  Nothing is worse than having a child that is hungry.  I never ask for help.  I am a hard worker.  If I had a car that was reliable, I could go back to work in one of the surrounding counties.  I do not.  Any help we could get would be greatly appreciated.  I believe in giving back.  I have always helped my friends and even strangers when in need.  I find it sad that the same has not been done in return.  Without a job, I won't have health insurance and without health insurance, I'm in big trouble.  I have an artificial valve now.  The life expectancy is 8 to 10 years.  I had it done in 2003.  I'm running out of time.  If there is anyone out there who could help with a car....actually food...anything.  I would be forever greatful.  I know we can get through this.  I have faith.  One day at a time.  I love my children and my husband tremendously.  I don't want to leave them yet.  I hate asking for help however; I have no other choice at this time.  I have "pounding the pavements" for work and, to date, it is stgnant!

Thank you!
