I've been consumed by this today.

Got a call from my congressman's office yesterday evening. She (his local rep) was really affected by the letter I sent. She asked about Hope Now, and HUD, etc., and I told her they were of no help. She asked if, in all these 7 months, I've ever heard from Chase what they could Possibly give me if I "qualified," and i answered that no, I had never had that discussion with them. And FYI - in opposition to the guidance that NACA gives (that if their attempt for us doesn't work we should press our congressmen/senators to talk with the CEO's of the banks), she said it is illegal for members of congress to directly contact the banks.

Congress is overwhelmed with the healthcare issue - but she said she would make sure congressman Thompson read the letter.I wasn't asking for their help for me ---- just that they gotta know what's going on out here.

Today I'm holding out the notion that there may be something good for me. I don't know where this stupid optimism comes from. the only control I have is whether I default. Barring some miracle, August will be the month that happens. Then it's a whole different ball game. I love having this place to talk about my travails, but sure do wish there was some thread of hope that this would work for people.....
