Catra,
I know what your going through. I am a little bit behind you. when the hurricane was coming, I found out my filled a petition to terminate my wages, the hearing got postponed, etc.
then I got ****** and started writing my representives and senate. It's now been 2-3 weeks. I've gotten 1 reply. so next step.
Get a game plan, get ******, and go for it. Grab the bull by the balls and tell your atty. sometimes you got to look outside the box.
