Pensioners in loneliness epidemic

.....she said she can only trust Keith in our village, even if he's a Scouser!

Hahaha

Well done both. I'll bet she's very secure about that.
Does she have any family helping/visiting?
Does she have any community carer?

I'll bet one day she'll need someone.
That's the fear of all older folks living alone.
Very sad

She has a sister who regularly calls her to check up on her. Sometimes her sister calls us if she can't contact her. But our neighbour still can drive as she loves driving. The good thing with her though is that her doctor does home service for her if she really needs to be checked but can't go out. She's lucky though as she has money. She said she used to own a pub in Manchester before finally settling here in Wales. She really has lots of stories to tell and sometimes we end up listening to all of it for a couple of hours!
