i need to get out of my house with my 10 yr old son as soon as possible..However since I have DDD,and no longer work, no friends to help, I have no family as well.
I applied for a Sec 8 voucher 2 yrs ago but the wait is 2-3 yrs. I have been in touch with a Safe Space advocate but nothing came of it. I moved from Va where I have lived my entire life to NC to be with my extended family. I have been there 2 yrs and not one person has been to see me. I live in a rural area, so isolation is an issue. My husband has complete control now. My family, God knows I have tried, just will have nothing to do with me. Ironically my husband loves it here. I go back to Va every chance I get. I WANT to go home! I can't stay in NC, my son has not adjusted, in 2 yrs has not made ONE friend. With my family completely ignoring me, there is absolutely nothing for me there anymore. I have to move back to Va., for myself and especially my son. I'd like any suggestions, My husband was found guilty of domestic violence, so my abuse is documented. Cannot take this, no life at all. How can I go home? This is hilarious! I have no money except my SSDI, can't work and I have no where to go? Any miracle workers out there? Posted on 07/04/09, 09:07 pm |

Hi Rayne, I am so sorry to hear of your situation. Please know that there are many here who can help. I'm assuming since you live in a rural area that there are not a lot of community services? When you say your husband was found guilty of domestic violence are you saying he was charged and served time? And I'm assuming you are still together? No one can or will tell you what to do but many will support whatever decision you make. Only you can know what is right for you and your son. Are you currently safe from harm? Does your husband continue to abuse? Please know that there is a way out. It is not easy but the door is there.

Hi Rayne, Have you thought about just staying put, it might be cheaper, and kicking your husband out of the house. Will the law allow you in that state to live in the house, while he is out of it? Can you sell the house (assuming you own) and then you can take the money, or some and move back and find a place for you and your son?
Joely.

Hello rayne ---
There's a federal agency set up to help older and also disabled adults and their families. I'm not sure about your location, so I'm going to paste in a link to help you get the best number for this agency, in your area: http://www.dhhs.state.nc.us/aging/aaafile.htm#Q Why don't you copy and paste that in, and see if you can't make a connection that might give you some support? Or try: (919) 733-3983 Best thoughts and prayers to you. Ilene
