I don't know if I would be in your spot which one I would do. YOU ask a really hard question
If you miss a credit card payment you are looking at them raising your interest rate and also charging you big late charges. Which on 4 or 5 cards could cost you for one month at least a 100 or more dollars. And in the long run even more money
If you miss a mortgage payment you have to make sure that you can make up
PS you need to talk to Norma she had to take chapter 13 because of the same thing. She would be a great one to ask advice from. In the end going bankrupt saved her and her family.
Also if things get really bad which I feel maybe the case for you at this
Hi Speedy,
I can start this message by saying, "Been there and done that", and tell you my heart goes out to you.

Sorry to hear you are going through this. Hopefully Norma will be around soon (as MaryAnn said, she went through the EXACT same thing). She declared BK and you can tell (even on the boards) how much lighter and happier she is for it. I'm sure she'll respond sooner or later.
In the meantime, keep your chin up. Hope things turn around!

I cannot begin to thank you all for your positive postings and giving me the courage to do what I know I need to do for myself and and my family.
Norma: Your story brings me such hope. I too will do whatever I have to do so long as I don't lose my home. Thank God I too have a family/friend attorney who has experience in bankruptcy that I will be calling today to schedule an appointment with. I always felt ashamed of the word "bankruptcy" but if it means saving my home and living simply where I can breath, then so be it.
Again, I am blessed to have had contact with each of you and I will keep you posted.

Chin up Speedylulu, it's a little frightening, but with a good attorney, you can make it through it.
