I am new to this group, I live alone in an apartment and get help with most of the difficult things I have to do. My daughter lives about 20 minutes away and helps when I need her. I try to do as much as I can as I feel satisfied when I accomplish something that I didn't think I could do , so that way I don't feel so useless, lol...

Welcome to the forum Dino.

I think your amazing at your age and this comment inpires me.

"I try to do as much as I can as I feel satisfied when I accomplish something that I didn't think I could do"

What a positive outlook to have - well done you. I think you are an example to us all with that positive attitude.

If you don't mind me asking how long have you had afib for ?

All best,

Paul

Hi Dinolou , welcome to our friendly forum. You are a similar age to my next door neighbour who also lives alone, although she has two sons which visit quite frequently. I try to help her out whenever she has a problem. I'm aware that life in an apartment can be more isolated that living in detached houses, but do you know any of your neighbours?
