What would you do or how would you feel?

I used to work for this place owned by my friend. I actually worked there for many years and have known him for 10 years this year. I got my friend and neighbor a job there as a CSR. Shortly there after my friend/boss told me he had to let me go because the business is going under and he needed my commission from my customers to save it. I left within a month-unhappily mind you. No money, no job, 5 kids and a mortgage. My friend is still working for them and they have just paid for her to go to school and paid her for her time in school to get her agents license; this replaces me. It really hurts me that one they couldn't keep me and two they are paying her to go to school. I don't think she understands how painful it is. She is forever saying she is going to quit, but I know she wont. I couldnt ask her to quit, but maybe she should stop sharing with me all they are doing for her. It is very upsetting. They were good friends, we celebrated our kids' birthdays, holidays, the works. Our two youngest children were born a day apart. I am still sad about them making me leave and causing me to start over financially. What would you do?
