I have no clue about how subletting works, really. I mean, do I move my stuff out and someone takes over the lease while I'm gone or how does that work? I did just find out that a storage company very close to where I live will store my stuff on a month to month basis for $50 per month. That sounds pretty reasonable to me. I don't know if anyone I know has room to store what furniture and stuff that I have. I don't have that much, but still it would take up a lot of space.

Maybe I'm jumping ahead about the apartment but there's just no way for me to afford to keep paying for it with no money coming in.

Believe me. I am working on trying to get the rights to be able to discuss the medical with his doctors. It's just up to him to get the letter to her :( That's a totally different story.

And what about access to my money? Should I leave as much of it as possible in my account and then just use an atm card to withdraw it when necessary? I would think the fees for that would get expensive. Or maybe I should just use my credit card and just pay the balance off every month?

sigh. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to have to spend the least amount of money while I'm there.

All your suggestions are appreciated. I need all the help I can get :(

Hi Lyric (F) In my opinion you answer all questions you ask!

You are in an emergency situation, so all administrative stuff, people you have to deal with, have the civil duty to understand and care, so check the original or the source papers:

-for the lease, check the lease paper, the part when you have to leave it in such situation, then inform the owner the reason you have to go, such and such date.

- money thing, i think the AT&T thing might be the simplest one.

- the car insurance, check the insurance paper, if any info is available for being with the US car in Canada, or call the insurance company.

I would think of simplifying the administrative stuff in order to make mental and physical space to be with your beloved.

Best wishes of healing for your hubby! you are doing everything so right!(F):D

I wrote a nice letter to my landlord (as I still had 3 months left on my lease) offering him 3 options. He took the nicest one for me.... help him advertise (craigs list) and find a renter, let me out of my lease free and clear. I would think given your circumstances if you needed to do this, they would understand. You could do the sublet too, lots of people post sublets on craigs list as well.

I have been using my ATM up here with my california bank... small fee, not much to baulk at though.
