Crying inside

So we had to sign up for public aid. I thought the lady would have sent it in by now. She told me 7-10 days and it has been over that. I called her and she said she had 30 days to get it in. In 30 days my family will starve. I am having more problems paying the bills. Terry hasn't even gotten a pay check yet. I want to curl up in a ball and never leave my bed. But my kids need me so I am there for them in what ever way they need. Hopefully soon we will get some help.
