    Default Spousal Support For a Disabled Spouse

    My question involves divorce in the State of:Virginia
    My spouse of 15 years surprised me this week by leaving me taking the kids cutting off my access to our bank accounts and trying to get me to sign a "separation agreement"-perhaps I am blind but did not see it coming-my questions arise because I stayed home to raise our children for 13 years during the day while my wife worked and advanced her career, while I, in addition to caring for our children, bar-tended and went to college at night, earning my undergraduate degree and starting on a law degree, but then broke my spine and was infected with 3 disabling tick diseases and had to give up dream of practicing law and go on social security disability and am disabled and unable to work but still was caring for our youngest child as wife just got new high paying job (100 K+)-her agreement would keep me afloat for a few months but then I would be on my on own with virtually no income and high medical bills and little or no access to my kids-what if any recourse do I have in virginia? what of spousal support? separation agreement appears to have clause that makes it a binding part of eventual divorce settlement-and she knows if I don't sign it I'm without my kids, homeless and without meds and access to health care that much sooner-any help would be greatly appreciated.
