I rarely say things like this, but dmartmar, you are such a fukcing aszhole....BITTER AS HELL or what??? wow. I disgrace myself by speaking that way to you, but you know what? This one time, it was worth it. M.

Only those that are truly bitter resort to insults and verbal attacks.

yes...I felt a bit of bitterness *toward YOU* in that particular moment..nothing like kicking someone when they're down..and you do it OFTEN. It gets annoying. As often as you DO 'result to insults and verbal attacks' yourself, you must be one bitter person, just as I first guessed. Ah well...I don't have to live with ya! M.

As for that one obnoxious person dmartmar "go to to hell and join my bills" Is this a case of deja vu where you were mean and nasty to me previously? Do enlighten me as to your problems you have with me. Other than that, if you can't be a decent human being, then don't post and put people down when they already are.

For your information I-360's do take their time, but my petition has taken longer than most.

As for the benefits, I applied in January 2005.

How dare you you to tell me I should have stayed with an abuser. My husband refused to go the AOS interview. Don't you ever read things correctly??????????????. He put me in this situation. DIG IT!!!!!!

I have every intention of working and paying my way. I have two Bachelor hons degrees, which includes one in teaching. I do not want to live on benefits and work on the side as you suggested. I just want to be able to work and pay my way like everyone else.

1st of all, re-read my post. Where does it read "go to hell and join my bills?" I was being sarcastic towards the person who's advice for you was to "send the bills to hell." Now what kind of advice is that?

2nd of all, it seems as if your husband's only abuse was refusing to attend your AOS interview, which in turn gave you no other option but to pursue a VAWA waiver. I guess that refusing to attend the interview can be construed as "power" and "control" and as such, mental abuse.

3rd of all, you had the option of going back to your home country after the marriage broke down, yet chose to adjust status by yourself instead.

4th of all, in the year and a half you've been waiting for your I-360 to be adjudicated, you've done nothing to try and better you and your son's situation, all the while living off other people, getting things for free and blaming it all on the USCIS.

5th of all, you don't want to live off benefits, yet applied for them in Jan. of '05.

Well-Well-Well. You judge only the side your know. Put on somebody's skin....and feel it. I guess you spend all your time beeing mean. Got to work hard to be mean, right?

Shona --

You might try circumventing the hospital's billing office and talking to social services, if they have any support like that available. Sometimes the billing office won't listen to you, but they might listen to a social worker.

Guys this post is a year old. Shona most likely has resolved this issue, therefore I am closing this at this time.
