Looking at your profile - it appears as though you've worked extensively in technology in the past - and are reporting a cash crunch currently.
First order of business seems to be securing a place to live. Could be a friends couch or a room to rent.
Longer term, resuming employment in the tech industry seems to be a good path to financial security.
A couple of questions - is there a timeline for the inheritance money arriving? Will that enable you to rent a place to live? Do you plan on working concurrently with going back to school?
Again - sorry for all that you're going through - although it sounds like you have developed a positive attitude.
