Re: Actually, you do have an out...

Missouri law requires that the status quo regarding insurance be maintained for a minimum of 6 months; after that, I have the option of continuing that insurance (while I pay the full premiums) under COBRA for the next 2-1/2 years. The full premiums for me run around $800/month, along with about $3,000/month in the full cost of my needed medicines. I couldn't afford that at all.

She seems to have no regard for the law, and I am amazed that her attorney (who should know better) would be assisting her in crushing me to dust. Even though she has now broken two state laws (that I know of), is denying me access to my own daughter, and is now threatening to break an agreement that SHE made voluntarily, the court system crawls here in Missouri -- too slow to be of any real help. And learning that there aren't any social services her but food stamps, and that I fell through the "safety net" with the work credit problem for SSD, I am more depressed than ever.

She seems to be calling all of the shots, depriving me now of even medical and drug coverage, and basically making my life as miserable as she can. There is now no doubt in my mind that she has a very serious emotional abuse problem, but she would probably justify it in her mind, somehow.

Her cruel behavior is exactly 180 degrees from what it was when we were together. We seemed to be the model Christian family. I cannot explain her behavior.

And she has been assisted by a legal system that was supposed to protect spouses from real abuse; she has totally gamed the system to the point where the appropriate state service will not help me -- truly a victim of her abuse -- since they helped her file those false abuse allegations against me in the first place; not a single "fact" she listed on the protection order application was even remotely true.

I went from what I thought was a decent position in this case a week ago to being absolutely at her mercy, which is exactly where she wants me. I am beginning to realized that I will never see my kids again, because she has poisoned them so much against me. Even forcing the farm sale works in her benefit, not mine; she is paying the mortgage and other expenses (part of the agreement she made with me,) so selling the farm will significantly increase her already high disposable income, but leave me homeless and without any means to support myself. There is nothing left but debt if the farm sells, but she is pulling in $6,000/month, while I am trying to figure out how to survive when she kicks me out, with no chance of disability or other income.

The next court date is several months away, and by that time, I will be in full narcotics withdrawal, in extreme pain, high blood pressure, at serious risk of a relapse of my Crohn's disease (in remission since 2002, with failing kidneys (from 2 decades of prescription drug use) and facing the awful winters here.

My only solace is that she is piling up her legal fees, since every single issue between us has to go through her attorney. I tried to encourage her to bypass the expensive attorney's by working out some of the issues on our own, but she has effected a total communications embargo with me that leaves mp choice but to go through our $100/hr attorneys. She wants me to pay her attorney fees, child support, and no spousal support, but there is no way in Hell that I can work, so she will end up with it all in the long run; I doubt by that point I will be alive. Half of my 11 chronic medical problems are life threatening, and my state caseworker said that my Medicaid application will probably take until December to approve. Pharmacies don't hand out medicine without some kind of payment, and I have nothing to pay with.

In a sense, I am looking forward to the inevitability of my death. It will be a release from a miserable life.
