Hello Caring.com & to ALL Your Members! I would imagineit would be most appropreciate for me to start my profile with my name and that would be, Patrick J. Clancy. I live alone in my townhome in Harford County,MD. Iam, 58 years of age, soon to turn 59 this June 22nd. :) It seemed to be by pure luck, that I came accross your Site. I'm very glad that I did, I need all the help I can get. :) Iam and have been disabled for most of my life. I was adopted at 2 & a half yrs. of age. My StepMother died when I just turned 10. My StepFather, or Father, remarried in 1960, to a lady with 3 girls & 1 boy. I had 2 brothers before my Father remarried, one of which was adopted too. I was never told that I was adopted by my parents, but rather by one of my closet friends at the age of 18! I always thought something was odd, when looking at my first 2 brothers & comparing their looks to mine. None of the 3 of us looked at all alike. Being united, if you well, with another family didn't make things any better for me, or my adopted brother. Moving on, I was always pretty much a loner all of my life, not by choice, by rather circumstances if you will. I was diagnossed years ago with a low self essteem & self worth. Since then I have become depressed & have a acute anxiety disorder, which I take medicines foe both. My Father lives alone & told me last week that you better start getting your things in order, I don't have much longer. I didn't say a word. I didn't know what to say. My EX left me about 8 years ago. My children never go to see Him. He was always good to my kids, but they never go to see him nor do they ask me how hes' doing. For that matter, my kids' never even come to see me or call me. I have 3 kids and they all have children, my GrandChildren, who they never bring to my home to see me. I have to drive to their home to see my grand kids. I'm telling you this because, I too have a great deal of difficulty, "Getting My Things In Order" and I'm the only one that is handicapped to the degree that I had to leave my job with the Feral Govt. and see Doctors for both mental and physical reasons and am now on SSDI. My Father told me that all of his needs are paid up, concerning when he dies. I wish I could say the same. I stop by to see and talk with my Dad when I can. Only ONE of my own children, have ever come to see me, or call me to say hi. He is my youngest one too. I have learned that people in general, don't like to be around people that, in their minds, are different then them and usually treat such a person as I, as if we have a contagious illness. A man in ST. Augustine,FL. once told me that the most abundant resource in the world is, ignorance, lack of knowledge. Thak you for your time and the opportunity to vent my situation.
