Unknown Story

But, all good things must come to an end, it seems. At the age of 72, James was diagnosed with prostate cancer.
He put up a good fight, but James died three years following his diagnosis.
Laura woke up alone every morning and found herself becoming lonelier every day. Like many older widows, she experienced loneliness frequently.
Her children were now adults and the empty house was a reminder of the big, loving family she was once surrounded by. Her loneliness turned into isolation.
Most research on loneliness & social isolation has focused on adults 60 years or older. Findings show that 5-11% of older adults report loneliness and 10-40% report experiencing isolation, like Laura.
Laura's neighbor, Gloria, came to visit one day. She brought cookies along with her condolences. Gloria lost her husband, too. The women talked for a while, and Laura felt supported for the first time since James died.
Friendships help us deal with hardships and loss. For older adults, companionship is a lifeline to those who feel isolated and fear being a burden to their families.
Laura and Gloria found friendship in one another. They walked together everyday and helped each other become comfortable with the changes that accompany aging.
