Hi, I hope nobody minds a lonely OLD fool having a moan. I am a Brit, and when I say old I mean I will be 60 in a few weeks time.
Basically, I lost my wife of 20 years almost 4 years ago. VERY suddenly to cancer (30 days).
Natasha, our, now my daughter was only just turned 15 at the time.
The last 4 years have been devoted to looking after her and helping her in her education.
Somehow, she was accepted for Uni and now, 4 months into her Uni life, she is working hard and playing hard. Enjoying life.
Suddenly, after 20 years looking after a family and 4 years a daughter, I have no one.
I find it difficult even to look after myself.
Other problem. I am self-employed. I work alone. Some days the only conversation I have is with the local shop ckeck-out girl.
Where do I go from here?
Is there anybody who will even chat to me on this site? i have never tried that before.
Thanks for listening
Michael
