Hi, Margaret H!
I'm terrible sorry to hear about your situation! My fiance and I will be praying for you guys!
Well, I don't know anything about working from home except for making money online. I'll give you some practical advice on that, if you'd like!
First of all, don't make the same mistakes I did. If you see a website saying, "Earn £15K ($30K A Month Easy Money!", then run away. It's not worth your time.
The days of making millions online in a week are over.
The days of making money online, however, are not.
There IS money to be made online, but you need to learn to do it the "right" way.
The best way to go is to start your own business!
When I say that, I mean there are really a number of ways to make money online.
Here are just a few of them:
1. Make a website or blog on a topic that you know about.
Then, you sign up to AdSense and other PPC content sharers, and you make money when people click on your links.
2. Sell an actual product
You can still make money by selling advertising space, but this way, you make money by selling a product.
3. Sell a digital downloadable product.
Like an eBook or some other type of digital product. This way, you don't have to deal with postage or anything like that. It's like an online vending machine!
It's really easy to set up websites like these. In fact, you can buy a website on eBay for very very little time or money, and start making money within a week or two of marketing your website!
Anyways, I hope this post helps you to see other avenues of making money online...
Good luck!
-Andy
P.S. (Just a thought) I just published a free book you can find at my website called "How to Start Your Own Online Vending Machine From Scratch In 10 Easy Steps" - it might help you out..
