text: contact your state's medicaid office to find out exactly how much income your household is allowed to still qualify for benefits. surely they have a specific amount, and you can watch your work situation to fall within that range.\n\nwhat an unfortunate situation for you, hon. i'm sorry it's so hard, and i hope things turn around for you.\n\np.s. cool hat. ;)\n\nEDIT: i see your additional info now. wow. $68 a month?!? sigh. i thought the divorce suggestion was extreme, but darned if that might not be your best option. this is ridiculous. so the amount he gets through social security isn't nearly enough to pay for your expenses? ugh, ugh, ugh. have you contacted an attorney who might be able to lay out some options for you? most will offer a free consultation over the phone.\n\nthe "put it in the hands of god" answers, while well-intentioned, don't sound terribly helpful here. god rewards the faithful? sigh. so anyone who dies or has bad things happen to them wasn't deserving of a good life? STILL, there may be help to be found with some charity organizations. i'm so sorry.
