Feeling anxious and alone

Hi my name is Summer54 , thank you for accepting me into this community, it’s lovely to meet you all , 
I have decided to  join as i became a widow suddenly 3 years ago aged51 , He was my best friend and carer for 17 yrs , just recently I have become very anxious about being alone, scared I suppose, probably due to my ill health , as my 3 children are grown & don’t live local . I don’t really know what to expect by joining but I do so appreciate your acceptance , Tyvm sending much love from a young 54 yr old , who’s disabled and a bit anxious at the mo xoxo.
