I'm so sad that I didn't find this story sooner. I would nominate my husband. He lost his job just when we learned that we were expecting our second child and at the same time that his mom was hospitalized (following five major strokes in one month and coratd artery bypass surgery that left her completely paralyzed). His stepdad was already unemployed and they lived with us and provided childcare for us until she became paralyzed. We were evicted from our apartment, had to sell the only car we owned to pay off the loan on it and moved to the central valley from the east bay so we'd have a roof over our heads. We love the valley, but now we live out in the countryside with a toddler, a newborn, our paralyzed mom and no car. Any vehicle would be a blessing, but one that can fit a double stroller and a wheelchair would be a miracle. If the deadline to enter is pushed out again, can someone please please PLEASE let me know? My email is obviouslyannie@yahoo.com. Thanks!
