Answer :

I am sorry for her situation and your heartbreak, @whiteliondreams. While I can’t give specific recommendations, I’m wondering if she has skills that could provide her income by working from home. While she might not possess “professional skills,” she may have some superpowers that could be developed as a source of revenue. And I’m also wondering if you’ve explored social agencies in your area that might provide support and training to get her back on her feet.
