You can take care of the foreclosure without claiming bankrupcy. Cut your spending to the bare minimum (basic food, utilities (no cable, dial up internet, land phone) and vehicles for the meantime. Find out from the lender what the alternatives are to regroup. Possibly you can refinance, but you need to tightly manage your finances while you sort through this. There may be additional taxes to pay on the amount they forgive.
By avoiding bankrupcy, your credit rating can recover sooner and more easily. You might also visit a non-profit credit counseling agency for more advice. There are good chat rooms on the web, too.

If your house goes back into foreclosure after you are making payments on a chapter 13 can you file pro se to stop foreclosure?
You are leaving out important information: when was the chapter 13 ended and why did it end? If the chapter 13 has not been closed or dismissed, the mortgage should not be in foreclosure unless you missed several post-petition payments and the mortgagee got relief from the automatic stay. You cannot have two bankruptcy filings open at the same time. If the chapter 13 was ended pursuant to a section of the bankruptcy code, you may be able to refile, but you may not have the benefit of the automatic stay. Consult a local bankruptcy lawyer.
