I am so sorry you’ve gotten more bad news. Life has sure not been easy lately for you and it is worse when the problems are something you have no control over.

Making friends as an adult can be tough and maintaining friendships can be challenging too sometimes. People are often busy with so many other things - work, family, existing friends.

I have been feeling sort of isolated myself these days since we moved out of the city. It’s me, my husband and pets too. The neighbors I have interacted with here are nice, but our interaction is limited. It is harder to get together with friends that live where we used to live. It takes more of an effort, definitely. At least several are on vacation the next few weeks and I am back to work but only part-time, so we should be able to meet for lunch or something.
