My husband and I moved to the country 6 yrs ago in hopes of having a place for the kids/grandkids to come to get away from the city. The place was in extreme need of repair. We were here approx,2 mos when a fire took the polebarn that held all our belongings while we were trying to do so e of the most needed repairs. Needless to say we were very under insured and didnt even get enough to rebuild our polebarn,let alone replace any belongings. Since then the loss of my husbands job and no money to do the repairs have weighed very heavy on us. We are loosing our home. We are literally scraping by selling scrap metal and aluminum. The rain/snow comes in  in several places, we never have it warm enough to not wear layers of clothes.And the food to eat is limited. We can make it like this though if we can at least hang onto our home until somthing in the economy/employment areas in Michigan ease up some. We just praise the lord we dont have littleones to care for , as so many do.We have never been wealthy people financially, but have alsways felt blessed for our family and home.I dont really know where Im leading to with this...I just know I couldnt hold everything inside anymore. My kids dont even know how bad it is. No-one does as we do our best to contain it inside in hopes things will soon get better.Its been almost 2 yrs now tho, and the far and few side jobs and the lack of anything left to sell has caught up with us.What has went wrong.....what do we do now.....? Dear god....there has to be some answer to all this somewhere. its not about Christmas presents, or new anything...its about surviving an d holding onto all we have left. What the fire didnt strip us of....our State has.Please .....someone tell me what to do next....how to hold on...Our address is 4191 Croton dr. , Newaygo, Michigan  49337  any help at all of any kind would be deeply a blessing. Thankyou
