For clarification, I love being alone. This is how I spend my time. Alone. Been that way since I was a kid. But I can also choose to NOT be alone if I want.
Losing function of my hands, and feet slowly following suit....having no close family I would even trust to do for me what I SHOULD be able to do for myself but eventually won't be able to do....THAT is what scares me. Alone. No self power. Being dependent on strangers because I CAN'T take care of myself. (When the time comes).
Old people. Forgotten. Stuck in a state run old folks home facility, people hired to take care of those people and not exactly the best of the crop hired to do so, etc. THAT is what I don't want.
