- After waiting since 2017, when I was living in places where I wasn't allowed to have a cat, I was able to adopt one from the local shelter. Adopapet.com found him for me. He's a 4-year-old black male DSH. He's beautiful, with eyes that say "I love...
- Finally, I have my own apartment again and I'm allowed to have a cat. So I went looking on petfinder.com and fell in love with one. She was a black medium hair cat, 2 years old, currently at a shelter 93 miles from where I live. I submitted an...
- I'm a newbie here, but I'm not a newbie to having cats. I had one or more cats all the years between 1979 and 2017. In 2017, my husband died and I moved to a personal care home, where I was not allowed to have a pet. I missed it so much! Finally, I...
- Believe it or not, when I was younger I worked as a phlebotomist (person who draws blood for lab tests) and in a hospital lab for 9 years. I was good at my job and liked it. Now, at age 66, I have my own apartment and am afraid to go outside. In a...
- I'm not doing so well. This has been going on for awhile with no end in sight. I saw my therapist yesterday and it was not a good session. Fortunately, I hope, I have a session with a new therapist on Monday. I do hope that goes better. I'm...
- I'm feeling about the way I expected to feel today. It's Christmas. Since my husband died in 2017 and I have no other family, I have no one to spend Christmas with and I miss my family and the good Christmases we had for so many years. I live alone...
- I turned 66 on the 20th of December. A year ago I was in a personal care home, where I had been for 3 years. Before that I was in my own apartment for 10 years. Then in June 2017 my husband died, and that's when I moved to the personal care home. I...
- In the beginning of November, I moved from the motel where I was staying because I was "homeless" to an apartment. In 2017, after my husband died, my social worker thought I should move to a personal care home. I did that, and very much missed the...
- In 2017, I had had my own apartment for 10 years. I had no physical complaints that I can remember. Then, on June 30, my husband died. My social worker thought I should move into a personal care home, since I could no longer afford the rent of that...
- In March of this year, the personal care home where I'd lived for 3 years closed. I moved to another personal care home which I absolutely hated every minute of every day. They also charged me rent that only allowed me $100 left over for my other...
- I'm living in a personal care home--this particular one since March of this year, when the one I'd been living in the previous 3 years closed. I hate this place. The food is terrible. I don't know anybody, I have no friends here. My husband passed...
- I'm not having a very good day. I mistakenly moved into this personal care home after the one I had been living in for 3 years closed in March. My life has taken a turn for the worse practically every day. The Administrator is a B--ch. I can't...
- My husband passed away in 2017. We got married on May 1, 1992. That was the happiest day of my life. Today we would have been married 29 years. I hope he is doing well, wherever he is. I haven't been doing so well lately. I was doing alot better...
- I'm so depressed I don't know what to do. I chose to come to this personal care home when my previous one closed, instead of going to my own apartment. This place is hell. There is one phone for the whole place, staff and residents, so I can't even...
- I have Meniere's disease. Some years ago I had attacks with severe vertigo but not recently. I lost all of my hearing in my left ear and some in my right ear. This past week I've lost most of the remaining hearing in my right ear. I'm scared because...
