Financial Aid Appeal for Maximum Time Frame?

Last year my financial aid was terminated due to maximum time frame. I am now wishing to return to finish my degree. If I complete all of the courses I have registered for for the Fall 2012 semester, per my degree audit, I will have all of the requirements met! :) There were some circumstances such as an abusive relationship and the birth of my son that caused me to "waste" some of my time at the college. I am in the process of completing the appeal to see if I can get financial aid for this one last semester.
What are the chances of getting the appeal approved?
I have documentation for hospital visits due to the abusive relationship and also birth of my child. I am just scared to death. I have a meeting with an advisor next week to help fill out that portion as well. I am just not financially in the position to pay on my own, and I feel I am so close I really want to finish what I started. Also to add I am out of the relationship now and much more stable. I wrote up a letter explaining this also to go with the appeal. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
