Hello,
I am a single mother of two adorable children.
My husband filed for divorce in 2020 when my son was only three months old. I pleaded and pleaded with this man but, he insisted on going ahead with it. I also asked his friends and reached out to our local church leaders for help being that my husband was an assistant Pastor but, he refused and insisted he wanted a divorce. I had suffered a second degree tear from the pregnancy, severe medical complications and I was facing redundancy at the time the divorce was filed. I had to use my redundancy money to survive with my children and also pay for a solicitor. My redundancy money soon ran out and I was faced with the awful decision of taking loans so that I could get legal representation in the court. I found myself going to court trying to fight for custody of my children. I also found out he had numerous affairs with so many women, he soon moved out of the house and removed himself from all the bills of the house.
I was left to take on the bills of the house alone with no income coming in. He had moved himself and his mother to a luxury apartment leaving I and the kids to fend for ourselves. I had to take out more loans to look after my children hereby plunging myself into more debt. Then there was the ever growing legal costs I had to pay for. He sold all joint assets we owned together while we were married prior to the filing for the divorce and by the time I found out it was too late. I was left broke and in debt. I soon recovered after the injury sustained from pregnancy and tried so hard to look for work which I found but, I am now in so much debt that all my monthly income goes to paying off debts and bills. The former matrimonial home is now up for sale. The debt I am owing will not allow me get a house for myself and the kids as I currently can’t show affordability to get a mortgage with the amount I have to pay towards my debts every month. The money I get from the child benefits can barely buy enough grocery for I and the kids every week.
My health has been impacted from the whole situation, I have been so anxious and I barely sleep. I have done series of medical tests CT scan, chest x-rays, endoscopy etc but doctors can’t seem to determine what is actually wrong with me. I am in about £80,000 worth of debt. I am in urgent need of help to pay off my debt and hopefully I can be able to afford to buy a property for I and the children to live in.
Please can anyone reading this help me.
