I’ve enjoyed reading these posts. For the first time since I’ve been single, 30 years, I’m aware that I have been experiencing feelings of aloneness. I would say two years of a lot of isolation and struggling to recover from a heart attack, triple bypass and now heart failure. I’ve developed coping skills through life experiences but I am not able to resume my life as it was. My book club of 20 years was my tribe. During COVID they decided to disband and have dropped communication. Guess they aren’t the people I thought they were. My children and sisters live in other states. How am I going to rebuild my life when my body won’t support the effort? Would love to find a local support group for women with heart disease but everything is on the computer. My interests in art, knitting, and reading are therapy but you need a certain amount of human connection. Work in progress.
