[quote=Anonymous]My mom is nearing 60. Her husband died unexpectedly 9 months ago (not my father) and she then found out that he had been cheating on her throughout their 10-year marriage. She doesn't have any family and I'm an only child - living 1,000 miles away. She's depressed. Therapy would be a good idea but she doesn't have the money right now. She doesn't subscribe to a particular religion so it's hard for her to find a community with a church. In my view, she needs to find women in a similar situation - single with adult children and no other family - and attempt to build a family of friends. Surely she can't be the only one out there. I know this is easier said than done but has anyone been there, done that?[/quote]
