Today I am not crying about it, but I still know it's very real for me.

All my close relatives are dead except my mom who is 86 and in poor health.

I don't have any real friends, some acquaintances I guess.

I am for real alone in this world and I guess I'm angry . . . at God or fate or whatever.

And I'm really scared.

Is anyone else out there facing this kind of loneliness and aloneness?
My heart goes out to you, and I'm so sorry about what it is you're dealing with. And yes....sounds like our situations are very similar. I am an only child, and never got married or had any children of my own. Both of my parents died a long time ago, and the step-family of which I was (sort of) a part of for over 20 years disowned me about 8 years ago when I had a falling out with my evil step-sister. (For a REALLY stupid reason, btw.) Who knows what she told them, but not a one of them will have anything to do with me any more. The only relative I have, and we're not blood relatives, is my 90 year old aunt. I have one friend, who lives too far away. I hope in some small way it helps you to know that you're not alone in feeling the way you do. Sending many warm wishes your way......
