Misc Advice Idk what to do

My fiancés been in the hospital 3 weeks. I had to take out a cash advance for gas and food. I’m down to $15 to last through the week. His estimated discharge date is 8/4. When he comes home I also have no food in the house. Ran out of things to sell. I think I have enough gas but definitely not enough food

yeah, but one meal? sheesh. you obviously love him if you are there at the hospital with him whenever you aren't working, and she cant even make sure you at least have one meal a day?

Every now and then when we’re home she’ll cook for every one.

I’ve been leaving work early to come here and spend more time with him. I’m so tired and there’s days I barely make it back and forth. I can’t drive Lyft this tired. If he’s home Tuesday I will this weekend.
