Let me offer the usual cliche "Hang in there man, you'll get through it."
Sometimes life, for lack of a better term, just screws you real good.
Two years ago, my partner and I (through similar unplanned, horrific life-events) became homeless and without a vehicle.
Church soup kitchens, foodstamps, whole nine yards. We were stuck in a foreign US state, with no family, and not a penny to our name.
Long story short, eventually we clawed our way out of this situation.
For whatever it's worth, I just wanted to tell you that I (think) I know what you're going through, how awful and stress-inducing it is, and that you will have better days ahead.
