He has been given a chance to appeal for extra time to stay in the home for medical issues, which he will do given that he recently suffered two heart attacks and his wife has an autoimmune disease causing her to become slowly paralyzed.

If they feel they have especially severe headaches, they take Excedrin Extra Strength.The fact that these two medications, one sold in a green box and bottle and the other sold in red, contain exactly the same active ingredients, 250 mg of aspirin, 250 mg of acetominophen, and 65 mg of caffeine, is unknown to them, because they don't read labels.

balloon loans were getting called left and right .. but like you not predicting that.. but balloons always have that risk ALWAYS... when Rialto got 5 b of tarp funds they went hunting for little bank portfolios and loved picking up balloon payment notes then foreclosing on them.. it happened to two folks I know personally and they bought a little bank here in Oregon and did the same to some folks with MF .. it was a mess.. but again not predicting that at all.. however its not wise to also think the refi will always be there.. that is not prudent either.. so if your forced to sell 25% equity pretty much gets stripped in sales fee's and distressed forced sale pricing.. personally any short term debt I take on is my community bank that is solid and my banker of 25 years.. he rode through 08 with me and kept me afloat when others drowned on their debt.. but the larger banks I had credit facilities with they all got called and paying back 10 plus million in 20 months is not fun .. .
