[QUOTE=gloamingone;3625481]The government dropped the ball on my welfare case in January. I had a hearing, and it looks like the judge may rule in my favor, but she has til 4/22. Waiting for disability, which also takes months. Meanwhile I have to borrow money from my boyfriend and exhusband for everything. It's so humiliating. My son doesn't understand that I can't take him places like the zoo when he is out of school. Sometimes I can't even feed him. I'm at the end of my rope and so ashamed.

You don't have to be ashamed; you did nothing wrong. I don't know where you live but maybe you can also go to other places for food or money to pay utilities and rent. I don't know where you live, but where I am-we have churches with emergency food and organizations to help with crisis situations like yours. Now hold your head high and may angels surround you.
