MOM going to Santiago needs help!

Hello everyone,


I was soo pleased to read how individuals can reach out to DR1 for help and information that I decided to present my situation.

HERE IT IS...

I'm a proud mom of 3 beautiful teenagers.
Recently my spouse was diagnosed with a rare & advanced sarcoma cancer.
Due to that reason, I want to send my children to live with relatives (aunts, uncles & cousins) in Santiago for a year, from July 2007 to June 2008.

Caring for a very ill person and attending the children's needs is quite a challenge. Every single day, I have to take my husband for radiation.
Soon, he'll be getting chemo via IV weekly in NYC.

It's not easy to see a man's health deteriorating day by day.
My children are suffering, it's not fair to them to see their dad like this.

I've reached out to relatives and they are willing to help.

I'm hoping to find a wonderful school that English speaking adolescents who are serious about their education could attend. I want my children to have a great academic & cultural experience.

Please share experiences, opinions or contacts with me.

My family there can't help much, all their children are grown & gone.

Blessings to all & I hope to get some responses soon.
