Do you still have friends from your childhood?

I switched schools multiple times when I was younger, and therefore never had friends for a long time. My friends from secondary school no longer responded to my messages when I returned home from studying in a different country. So I do not have any close friends, or someone that I have known for a long time, except for my sister.

@Heartlander Sorry to hear that. I had a neighbor in the same situation. She suffered with cancer for years, but she took me anywhere I needed to go - CVS, Walgreens, beauty parlor, wherever. Finally, she couldn't live alone any more or drive. She moved to Dubuque, Iowa, to Sisters of Charity, donated her car to them, and I only talked to her a couple of times after that. One of her closest neighbors went to see her often. She died in hospice between the end of January or early February.
