I'm sorry to hear of your situation sister.
Prayer is obligatory and must be performed five times a day.These five times are dawn (
Fajr), immediately after noon (
Dhuhr), mid-afternoon (
'Asr), sunset (
Maghrib), and early night (
Isha'). Ritual cleanliness and ablution are required before prayer, as are clean clothes and location, and the removal of shoes. One may pray individually or communally, at home, outside, virtually in any clean place, as well as in a mosque, though the latter is preferred. Special is the Friday noon prayer, called Jum'ah. It too, is obligatory and is to be done in a mosque, in congregation. It is accompanied by a sermon (Khutbah), and it replaces the normal Dhuhr prayer.

The Best Prayer of Repentance:
Allaahumma anta rabbee laa ilaaha illaa anta, khalaqtanee wa ana 'abduka wa ana 'alaa 'ahdika wa wa'dika mastata't. A'oothubika min sharri maa sana'tu, aboo-u laka bini'matika alayya wa aboo-u bithanbee, faghfir lee fa-innahoo laa yaghfiru-thunooba illaa anta.
Meaning:
O Allaah, You are my Lord, none has the right to be worshipped except You, You created me and I am You servant and I abide to Your covenant and promise as best I can, I take refuge in You from the evil of which I committed. I acknowledge Your favour upon me and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me, for verily none can forgive sin except You.’
Whoever says this during the day, having faith in it and dies before the evening comes, will be among the people of Paradise, and whoever says it during the night, having faith in it, and dies before the morning comes, will be among the people of Paradise.” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 5831).
