Well, I'm feeling much better about things. My husband lost his job through a "reduction in IT staff". He did get some severance pay and we had been saving everything he could for the last six months trying to save enough to get out of debt. It's hard to see him put his heart and soul into a company have it end.
He's had some job interviews, but nothing promising yet. He turned down a few job offers just before he found out about all of this. I guess that's an irony. He probably would have accepted one of them if he had known he would be out of a job. We've had a lot of friends and former co-workers send him info about jobs. We feel very blessed! It's a little stressful because we need the health insurance because of my MS but I know we will get through it. I guess we'll have to pay COBRA for a while and see what to do after that. US healthcare is a real problem. He really wants to start his own business but there's no way for me to get health insurance if we do that. Anyway, that' my two cents. Stepping back, change can be a good thing. Thanks to everyone who has offered kind words over this. It helps a lot.

It never rains, it pours! So sorry to hear about all the things going on in your life at the moment. Thank you so much for still thinking of us with your freebies though, I really appreciate it. I hope your DH finds something soon, I'm sure that it is just around the corner. Hugs!
thanks for sharing Andrea... hope your dh gets a job soon that meets your needs.
Aw, Andrea, I'm so sorry! When I was in high school, my dad lost his job with the company he had been at for 25 years. He was overqualified for most of the positions he interviewed for, but finally found something that really suited him. He's doing better than ever! I hope the job hunt is short and successful! Hang in there with that great attitude of yours.
Sorry to hear that! I hope he finds a job soon, and thanks for the template!
Wow Andrea I am so sorry you are going through all of this. Will be praying for your husband and family.
I don't know what state you are in but I have a friend in CO that is self employed and has a brain tumor and he gets insurance through the state. You may look into it. I know he has done it for some time now. Good luck to you guys!
I'm so sorry to hear about your husband's job. Thanx for another great template.
Thanks for the template!!
And sorry about your husbands job, we have been there and it's tough but you are never alone! What kind of IT does he do? My Hubby is a Network IT manager, and we have another friend in programming. Let me know if we can help, we learned after 2 layoffs in a year that getting word out everywhere helps alot!
Andrea,
You guys are in our thoughts and prayers. Let us know if you need anything! We love you guys!
I'm sorry about your husband's job. I'll be sending good thoughts your way.
