Thank you for your good wishes. I get a lot of those on this platform and they always cheer me up. Church is not an option for me either. A really big reason for my despair is that shortly after my husband's death I had to have a full hip replacement. Because there was no one to look after me I had to go to a skilled nursing facility. What an oxymoron that is. How I survived 3 weeks there I will never know. We just had my husband's commitment a few weeks ago. When I left him at the cemetery I felt that I had come to an end also. What I also feel is that I am just now starting to mourn him. As my hip heals my heart gets worse. I am just not ready to go out yet.
