Erin, I don't know how old you are but there are rehab facilities for just that purpose, short term inpatient care that could help get that UTI taken care of and do physical therapy also. Now I know that some of them are i nursing homes but there are other kinds also. Is there a local MS society there you could ring and get advice, just have a shoulder to lean on, vent with or know how to help you. You and only you are responsible for your emotions, not any body else's. If your boyfriend dumped you, that is his problem. Yes, living in a lower level is a problem for you but your parents aren't in the best of health either, maybe a move is in order. Are you on Medicare? When Mom was living in her assisted living facility, there were two young people there also just to have the physical therapy and their meals taken care of. Sometimes you do have to swallow your pride in order to get your health back. HUGE HUGS TO YOU
