Southblues, I am glad your husband will be okay.
Try not to worry too much about him - and the possibility of being without him.
I too, live alone, and indeed, it is difficullt.
My family support is very limited, as my only family (son and daughter-in-law) live about 50 minutes (driving time) away from me - and they are very busy with their young family.
Hugs to everyone dealing with this issue.
