Hello to all you adult orphans -

May I join your group? I've been an adult orphan most of my adult life. Needless to say, its been a hard journey and often a lonely journey. I say these things not to elicit sympathy but to reach out to others in the same boat. Is there any interest in forming some kind of group, national or local, for people with no family, either through estrangement or death?

If anyone is interested in forming such a group please e-mail me at dparker708@Aol.com.

I am also editing an anthology on loss. If anyone out there is interested in contributing a piece please send it to the above address.

Thanks for reading this and I hope we can unite to form our own family.

Diane Parker
