Is there anything that isn't money that would help Rubén?
Thank you. If you're in Los Angeles I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
great idea, hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless!
Wishing you the best, Rubén. Hope you get there. My husband and I read this together.
