Her husband has a good job. Son is 26, full-time college student. I chose to be a housewife. It’s been seven years that they have been out of the house. I work part time, care giver companion. I just can’t let go and move on, I think about them all the time. My daughter lives in AZ., my son lives near by but he is busy. I put others first, Im trying to put my needs first. Unhappy with my life.
