A terrible situation

After the quote, honestly I can't think of a good way to start this... So I should just not beat around the bush like I usually do and just get right down to it...

One of my best friends is now homeless... and it's just her. Her mother's boyfriend kicked her out and her mom did absolutely nothing about it. She and her dachshund now have nowhere to go... And the first person she called was me. I wanted to do something. I really did. But when I talked to my parents, well, they didn't want to. The guilt I feel at being unable to help her knows no bounds. When my parents were fighting and I had to leave for my own safety, they were always the ones to take me in while I needed it.

Knowing I can't return the favor. I feel a lot like a scumbag. A mooch. I know our situation. But they were always in that place before now. Seriously. I feel so selfish. I don't feel like myself.....

I am crying right now.. seriously...
