Hi Becky,
I will certainly pray for you and your family. Just keep going, the most attractive option at times is to give up but its never the right one (which you know). Focus on God and tell it all to him straight hiding nothing. We have to be completely open and honest with him.
I read in a book (okay it was the Magician's Nephew) that at times situations have to get really really really bad before they improve (worse than we ever thought possible) but when they do its amazing and its so true and the blessings are amazing. At times we are pushed right to breaking point but remember that God never leaves us and is always there. GOD LOVES YOU SO MUCH AND YOUR FAMILY.
Oh and you are always welcome to let loose whatever you feel inside here, infact i would encourage it as it really helps. I've done it so many times and its the only way i could get thru. Here its a family and we love you.

[QUOTE Psalm 9:9-10] "The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you."[/quote]
[QUOTE Psalm 50:15]"and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me."[/quote]
[QUOTE Matthew11:28-30]"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."[/quote]
[QUOTE 2cor 4:16-18 ]16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.[/quote]
