Hard times
The pain medication that John was taking just didn’t seem to do the trick anymore for his broken heart. He started drinking and his mental health was getting worse by the day. He tried to break out of the cycle that he was in, but it was very hard to do so without a good support system.
He would often visit his wife’s grave and see how she was doing, sitting there and speaking with her for hours. But John was really just lonely and needed someone to talk to, it wasn’t easy now in his older age to move around and put himself out there in the world.
