what he ok'd. But I can't go anywhere until I find some place that is income based rent. $659.00 a month isn't much to live on. I know the kids would take me in they said they would but I just can't.


If I'm gonna do this I need to find a place of my own and get on with my life. The tension here is awful. We're both miserable. and I just don't know how much more I can take.

Please, Please, Please say a prayer for me. God Bless you all and thanks for caring! Always Ronny

You are in difficult times now, but don't do anything what you regret later. Ask for help to share all you have together, that means the house, income and when there are savbings and pension as well. Ask a loyer for advice before you leave to keep your rights. I can understand you feel lonely and miserable as well but you have to stand for yourself now. Keep strong. You will be in my thoughts.

Ronny, you said in your reply to me that "this is just too much to handle." And you are so right, it is! BUT it's not too much for God to handle. Remember that. We all turn things over to Him, then we just take all that trouble, pain & worry back...then have to turn it over again! Hang in there and hang on to Him! Praying for you.

Ronny, your husband has to give you half of what you two have together, either in goods or money. Half of that house is yours. DO NOT settle for less! I don't know if your state has alimony, but go for that as well. If you can afford to stay in the house, let HIM move out. This really gets my dander up! Use you up for 37 years and then throw you away. Not on your life, girl, you fight for your rights and I'll try any way I can to help you. Get your lawyer to file for maintenance for you, he has to help support you if you're disabled. You are entitled to his Social Security and pension, too. Don't let him tell you what you can or can't take. Don't abandon anything. Hugs, Marji

I will keep you in my prayer also...nobody really knows what you are going through unless they have been down that road themselves....As for advice, we have equal rights regardless of whom the bread winner was or is...you are entitled to half of everything you 2 own...A wife-mother-housekeeper is the same as an employed person...I would not turn over my keys, nor would I leave until you have spoken to an attorney and he/she has adviced you to do so....If your hubby is being totally inconsiderate, I would wait until he left then I would pack up whatever I wanted and felt I needed...just because I don't let people run over me anymore.....BUT I WOULD ALSO SEEK OUT YOUR PASTOR AND CHURCH SUPPORT GROUP FOR HELP. remember your friends are here to cry on or ask for a group hug....deanna

Deanna God Bless you girl. I have been talking with my pastor for the last 2 years (I wish H would have come with me but he wouldn't) as for attorney i have spoken to him and he told me my rights and what to do . It is just a very scarey move after 37 years. But I truly and maybe this is selfish on my part but I really need sometime for myself. Keep the prayers coming.hehe

Ronny, I am praying for your piece of mind. It appears that you have made a decision about moving, but whatever you leave could be construed as abandoned....I'd check with an attorney before I left anything there.

Ronny, leaving a marriage - is never easy - but you know that God has been with you - this whole time and He will not leave you now - I will be praying for you and hoping that you can reach out - in the right direction - to receive the help that you need - when you need it and don't just settle for what he will OK - you are one half of this marriage and even if he was the bread winner - you have a half of everything coming to you, as well. I will be praying for you dear.

Dear Ronny,

I am sending prayers your way too. Can you get help from your local church? Do you have a group that can help you out in your local community. We have them here in Aus, I am sure you must have something close by to aid you.

And listen, move in with the kids even for a little while or at least till you can get out on your own.

It will be good too for the sake of your peace of mind and health. After all you looked after them for years, didn't you?

And I don't know about your marriage laws over in America - but you should own half of what your estate (house and contents etc.) is worth. Can you have a good talk with your husband, I don't believe he is able to tell you what you can have. After all you have been married for a long time and you have earned it.

Keep us posted. Love and blessings Chris

Thanks Chris, Both the kids offered but I really don't want to drag them in this. I have found a 2 bedroom trailer to rent. They will have it ready for me to look at at the end of the week.

I have some boxes and started packing today but I am so uneasy about all this I just don't wnat anyone getting hurt.

The rent is a little more than I wanted to pay but once I get in there maybe I can find some help to pay for it.

I just keep on praying. Thank you for yours God Bless
