DrRoberta Dear Dr. Roberta,
My daughter asked me to sell my house and move to her small town when I became widowed. Now that I am here she never has time for me and I have no friends and no activities. Do you think I should move back?
Widow, Maine
Dear Widow,
Talk to your daughter and let her know exactly how you feel. Work out a schedule with her so you’ll know when you can count on her. Also ask her to introduce you to community facilities that have widows’ groups and other senior activities.
