I did ask that months ago.
I suppose he is still her husband.
Now they need to sell the house. neither of them have an income. and they have terrible debts. he will maybe now need your help as much as you need his.
I can see why the shout of hoax went out0 -

I am still at the hospital. Oh is attached to so many machines. He is havng trouble breathing on his own.
I am here alone and feel so helpless. I am staying in a hotel. Will worry about the money later. I cant sleep or eat, I am so worried.0 -
You really should try to eat something, even just a sandwich.
Does your husband not have any family there?0 -

I'm finding this thread very confusing. I am wondering if there is more to this than meets the eye.
Are there any cross cultural issues involved here?
There are a lot of people in this family that disapprove of a lot of things. I'm not sure the full history of this situation is available to us, which makes it tricky to give the right kind of advice.
BMG if there is any other historical/background information you feel able to give us, that would help give better informed advice to you, then it would be useful to post it.
I am assuming you are using a mobile phone to post messages. Was this not an option when you were going to stop posting before due to no internet being paid?
Kind regards

OP you HAVE to see that it's very frustrating reading for us and it's no surprise that people are starting to question areas of your story.
There MUST be something that you're not telling us or something that's making this situation seem worse than it is. NO parents, however strict, will desert their child like this, for starters.
You have been given lots of advice, including DMP options, and you've continued to ignore them and just post up updates of how everything is crashing around you. I'm not sure what you're wanting from us? Sympathy isn't going to help, i'm sorry.
I speak on behalf of us all, i'm sure, when i say that we wish you the very very best of luck but we're simply not going to be able to help without more information and you meeting us half way with things.
Please accept the help that's being offered.It all takes time and time is money,
money talks and talk is cheap.

I must say that I too would like to questions the absence of parents/siblings in this situation, no matter past differences everyone seems to rally around when a life is threaten. I am giving you the benefit of the doubt, contact immediate families to let them know what is happening.
If this is a hoax, I believe in Karma, what goes around comes around!

Update
Oh is in surgery at the moment so I have come outside to let people now.
In answer to all your question. OH doesn't have an family, he is an only child, like I am and both his parents are dead. I have spoken to my parents but they are not able to come down because of their own health problems.
It took a few hours to get to the hospital. If you look at the dates correctly there was approx. 7hrs between posts.
In answer to the question regarding using a phone. I bought a mobile after oh left and cancelled the landline at home.
I was not looking for sympathy as someone said just the opposite.
in fact why am I explaining myself to you all. Believe what you want.:mad: I hope if something like this happens to you, you will appreciate how hard all this has been for me.0 -
BMG
Firstly, I apologize for mis-reading the dates of your posts, i'm happy to admit when i'm mistaken. Sorry, i've removed that bit from my post.
As much as you disagree with parts of my post (which is fair enough) the bulk of my message within it still remains...
We ARE able to help you and we are able to get your financial situation back on track but you're not allowing us to give constructive advice. You need to start considering your options seriously.
I meant my post, believe it or not, with the best intentions. I'm trying to make you see that your posts are not open enough to allow us to help and, after 8 pages of getting nowhere, it's unsurprising that a lot of the original posters no longer visit this thread.It all takes time and time is money,
