My spouse of 40 years hates me And. Is being coached by a son that just showed u- after 40 years and a caregiver. He has decided that I a, stealing from him; and that he is not going to support me financially and has closed all the joint accounts and left me with nothing. Every Sunday is the worse. He does something more vile then the week before. Thankfully I cashed a check for 14k a few weeks ‘ago and was able to give a lawyer 5k retainer.I have no credit cards or can I get one. My lawyer says he power of attorney he signed to his son is illegal but these things take. Time. His son I’d paying all the house expenses but personally nothing I have no money for food , gas for my car, or the drugs necessary to keep my leukemia at bay. Thankfully I have now 8500 but who knows how long that will last. His caregiver is the one who is closing down all the accounts and taking the money. He also has liver cancer and had approximately one year to live. This is a mess and it’s difficult to not feel panic. I am recovering from a broken hip as well. I don’t want to aggravate him as I live in fear. As to what he will do next .he verbally abused my best friend of 30 years who refuses to come back. So not only feeling the fear of what he will do next I am feeling quite alone . If the cat didn’t love me I would be all alone
