NPR Report: "Unemployed Without Benefits"

Please be advised that I am currently unemployed, a widow and a single parent. I have worked all my life and went to college in hopes to give my children a good, loving home. I give the best I can, but for some reason bad things keep coming, even when I don't ask. See, I lost my husband 3 1/2 years ago and since then, I have been raising 3 children on my own, where we lost our home the minute he died and then I almost lost my job, but with prayers, I kept the job up until now. Recently I lost my mother, 3 1/2 months ago, then I lost my home again and then my car was repoed and now just one month ago, I lost my job. At my work, I lost my job because I took a break.
It can be very difficult in this world, but keep in mind that there is always someone who has it worse. I believe planning is important, but unfortunately everything does not go as planned. At least you have someone to help and you don't have others to take care of. The good Lord is there to see us through and because I believe so strongly that he has a plan, I just do my best and hope. Using retirement funds may be the answer for a short term, but adventually these funds are exhausted. I have some retirement funds I could get, but $18,000. will only carry me for 5 months. Also, I have a child under insurance who has a brain tumor and my insurance will only go through until Feb., then I don't know what to do. The answers are not always the obvious, but I know I'm looking. Where there is a will, there is a way and I believe in this statement, so I believe the more I try, the more I will achieve.
Knowing that some people have caused certain things to happen, others have not. Since I am one of those that did not know I was jeoperdizing mine and my children's future, I had no idea so many things would occur. I will say my prayers and Hope!

Are we supposed to feel sorry for the couple?

Yes. It's called compassion. That's apparently a word with which "God's Frozen Chosen" aren't familiar.

Just for the record, the Your Name above wasn't the Your Name who addressed Michele in the post about compassion.

And last time I checked, being self employed isn't exactly the same thing as driving without insurance. But leave it to a Christianist to make a ludicrous equivocation. You know, like birth control and murder, gay marriage and bestiality, or reality and mythology.

In the fairy-world where Jesus lives, up is down, left is right, and the world was created in 6 days.
