Julie-

You are under such pressure - I hope you are doing OK and are at least feeling OK physically? I am also hopeful there is some counseling where you are staying, so you will have some time to think about your next step, and that of your children. You didn't mention any other family on your side - any chance of their stepping in to help (or comfort)? Take time to consider your options, but don't ignore your health.

Kind regards,
