Kristi,

Sorry I could not help... but it seems to me that you know your situation best and know what is or is not possible... Good luck with resolving your situation. I know there is always a way out even if it seems there is not :-).

I honestly do not have the luxury of leaving her right now. None of my family is stepping up to the plate to help, so I am literally STUCK here 24/7.

Right now, none of them think me going to church is important enough for them to break their schedules (whereas me wanting to go home to check on my animals for more than 30 minutes is frowned upon)...well, when we get our placement, they'd better think of something...and QUICK.

Thanks to all of you for your replies. I am not a mingler/socializer outside of the internet realm, so that, plus spiritual enrichment for my hubby is why it is SO important for him to come with me.
