Also been left on the pile. I've had very little work for 3 years due to health issues and looking after elderly relative, then having to clear up the absolute mess that was their estate after they died (pretty much a full time job in itself) I'm fortunate that I've been able to survive on that inheritance in that time, and still have some savings from it, but that has dwindled now, and just as I really need it, I'm left in no man's land.
I have just enough savings to not qualify for UC, wife has taken a 20% pay cut. We should be ok, if this doesn't drag on for too long. And if it does, we'll be welcoming our first child into this absolute mess...
I can't even be in our 12 week scan that's happening right now, so I'm particularly bummed out at the moment.
