I live alone and am just so grateful when friends and family pop in for a cuppa and a good laugh. I am also very thankfull for the days when I can manage to reach my house door and make a few steps down the garden path. Far too rare but heaven itself when I can do so. Wish I could get out more as swimming would be nice but wouldn,t be able to sit long enough for the journey. I do have contact with a support group but never been able to meet them but all are very nice by email or telephone. I think besides laughter is never forgetting that somebody is worse than yourself. Best Wishes to you all
