The lender has 4 years from the date of the breach of the promissory note to sue you for the money. They may sue you, they may not. Bankruptcy is a possibility for your, but you need to see a local bankruptcy attorney to discuss all the options.

I suggest a 30-minute free consultation with a bankruptcy attorney in your area, to have a discussion weighing the pros and cons which may depend upon whether you have any credit worth preserving, other assets you might lose, whether your income would allow a Ch. 13, and other technical factors. It's a major decision; your age and income are factors to consider.
