I am so sorry to hear that. I hope he finds something soon. Just try to keep positive and help him as well. He will probably have trouble feeling low at times.
hubby is on his 3rd week or so here of being layed off still havent gotten money from unemployment yet.... and so far no deffinate date of him going back to work yet
My husband was laid off. He found another job finally, but it was several months before he did. What helped us through was he found free lance work. My husband is a mechanic so he did repairs for people. What can your husband do? He can put an ad on craigslist. It can bring in money until he can find something permanent. It is worth a shot.
