MS is certainly an up and down ride, just remember that when you are at your lowest point, you are looking towards an upswing. I think the saying goes something like "you never know how strong you are until you need to be".hunterd/HuntOP/Dave

You could try calling 211(the united way infoline) they have operators and you tell them what kind of services you need and they get you phone numbers or addresses and times. So they could let you know about food pantries or what number to call to apply for food stamps or file for child support. or numbers to call for utility assistance, etc.
I know it can be hard to ask for help, but there's a lot out there that people don't realize is even available.
good luck

I agree with Krissy. You should talk with social services and legal aid. If they are her kids also, she should be liable for child support. Disclaimer, I don't know New York law. But you should find out what rights and options you have from people who do know New York law. You might be entitled to spousal support since you've been together so many years.
Also, if you need help learning to cook cheap food, the library has cookbooks and the internet has recipes. Google is an easy way to find recipes and dried beans and split peas are cheap.
