My Mother is 85 living by herself in PA. She has been in the hospital twice during the lockup. Not allowed to visit and then she was put in a nursing home to recover. Not allowed to visit there as well.
This lockup is causing mental issues like we have never seen before. Loneliness is killing her slowly.
I’ll be 70 on my next birthday. I have been alone many times (and loved it!), but I have never in my life been lonely. So, I can’t identify with loneliness, as I have no idea what it is like.
