I’m a 78-year-old veteran, and lately, the days have been feeling long and quiet. My wife passed away two years ago, and while I’ve done my best to keep going, it’s been tough. We were married for over 50 years. She was my rock, and the house hasn’t felt the same without her.
I still get around okay, but some days I just don’t have the energy to cook or drive myself to the store. I miss having someone to talk to, share a meal with, or even just sit and watch TV. I know there are other vets out there like me, I just don’t know how to find them.
