I have lived in Phoenix, AZ for 31 years. Divorced with two grown children. A year ago I lost my job. Six months after that I allowed my drug addict son to drive my car and he totalled it! Living in Phoenix with no car is hell-on-earth! Feel distraught, lonely and depressed. Turned 60 a few months ago. Have an illness and no insurance. It's really brought home to me the dire straits I find myself in. I want to now move back to England, although my relatives seem to think it's a bad idea. The thing is in America if you don't have any retirement money saved, which I don't, it seems life here for older people is not good. I want to go back to England and be amongst my family, but I don't want to be unemployed either over there. The bright side of going back is it has more to offer on a day-today basis. It's much friendlier than here, people are sociable as opposed to Phoenix. The problem is I would have to go to a homeless shelter and then apply for a council house....so many things to thing about! Any suggestions, anyone?
