My friend, you and I are in the same boat. I was also laid off last month. Mine was for money reasons though and not anything personal. I just fell in the last hired first fired category. It is really tough.

First, never ever work for family. I found that out the hard way. I seldom ever see those things work out. It also seems like you can't do anything to please them. I know from experience. So don't take it too hard.

About the med thing, don't tell anybody not even someone you think you can trust. I have pulled a knife or two out of my back a few times. Sometimes people you think are trustworthy are the absolute pits. Hang in there along with me and I hope you find something else soon.
