My mom is about to be homeless....


Her husband lost his job two years ago and has become Cousin Eddie. Everyone at his old company bailed like rats off a sinking ship and he refused to jump, no matter how much they screwed him. They still owed him a couple years' pay by the time they went belly-up. Since then, he hasn't even LOOKED for work. They got a reverse mortgage and lived off that awhile, along with mom's Social Security.

Anyway, the bank is going to foreclose on them and neither of their kids will take their father in. My mom is going to spend this summer living with my little sister while we fix up a space for her here so she can move in some time at the end of summer. Her husband has been offered free passage back “home” to Australia, which he last left 26 years ago. He doesn't want to go because he'll never see his kids again, but they don't want to see him anyway because of the way he screwed things up so bad.
