You probably qualify for local private funded fuel assistance/food pantry assistance, that's a huge help on the food budget.
Get a cheap pre pay cell phone, chop your utility bills down by conserving as much as you can, car pool or get 4cyl vehicles.... and tell the judge what you told us here. The truth is on your side, and you can only do what you can do with what you've got, that's it, don't let it stress you out.

If you and your hubby can't makes ends meet with all your jobs, you're never going to make it on welfare! You should see a preofessional credit counselor, They can help keep those nasty creditors at bay. Or maybe, you should see a lawyer about bankrubcy if you medical bills are really high. That's propbaly what a judge will tell you too.
I feel for you, But better times are ahead. They have to be. What is you hubby taking in college? How old are your kids?
