a very good video. I"m 62, have no biological family and no partner or prospects of one. gay friends are 45 minutes away. my fear, as Peter mentioned is kicking it and no one would know for days or even weeks. I fear for safety of my cat for this reason. few understand the crushing weight of loneliness as older LGBT persons with no family.

Bob, would moving closer to your friends be plausible for you? Or is there any gay groups in your area you could get involved with? Another option might be to use Grindr or Tinder or other apps to find some new friends. And yes, some people do use them to find friendship. I know all of this is easier said than done, but it might be worth a try. Best of luck.

We are the same age. I understand where your coming from here. I always thought single old gay people should live together. Share the elderly years with each other.
