Time for an anxiety medication to be added to your schedule. Call and
ask for one, please.

Blue, what's the situation with your lawyers? Isn't it time to declare bankruptcy to
ease the stress on you? Am I guessing that your lawyers are looking for the government to be of assistance? Not a bad idea, at all.

Apply for disability if you need to. If your condition worsens, you might not be able
to manage the busniess. Your health is first; you need to get the vendors off your
shoulders and let the children know just what kind of difficulty you're having so
that they understand they need to co-operate. Assign some chores for them
after school to let them expend some of that excess energy they're building sitting
at their computers.

Don't bear the burden yourself alone, please. Share it--here, at home, and with
your mom.

If push comes to shove, living with your mom for a while so that you get oriented
again toward good health might be something to consider. If she's on medication,
chances are she's in much better shape than she was years ago.

Keep working with the lawyers; their ideas may be the best of all.
You're not going to be living in an automobile, so get that out of your mind, Blue.
You already have one offer and the solution is just around the corner. It always
is if we let it come.

Bankruptcy is no disgrace, and disability insurance may be helpful. You have to
have an income; and with bipolar staring you in the face now, you may qualify
with your psychiatrist's recommendation. Ask your lawyers' opinion on all the
alternatives. And ask them for alternatives. Being in an episode makes it difficult
for you to see other avenues of escape, but they're there.

Keep in touch.
