Kayleigh,

This is not petty at all and I know exactly how you feel. Right now, I'm out of town and all alone, so it's particularly hard. But even when I am at home with my husband, the feelings of fear and overwhelming loneliness are pretty severe. I wish I had some kind of solution for you, but I don't. All I have to offer is the knowledge that you are not alone in this - whatever that's worth!
