I am very thankful that I have my family close by. I was asked by one of my managers if I would be willing to relocate and I said definitely not. I know I would be miserable and since I am single, I depend on my family, including my sisters, for support and love.

I can only imagine the pain of living that far from your kids. My heart goes out to you.

I know this wouldn't replace your grandkids, but are there any families within your circle who have children you can "adopt"? At least it would give you an opportunity to express some of the love you have bottled up.
