She is 59 years old. All my cousins have grown up and she is left with the youngest but at 17, he won't be around for much longer either.
Do feel she is lonely but her behaviour of late has been pretty odd.
She's always been a bit scatty but 2 incidents have stood out of late. One was when we were all waiting for her to join us on a daytrip to visit a mutual family friend. Nobody could get in touch with her but she swore blind that she had told my sister that she couldn't meet us until an hour after we had actually arranged. Sister said she definitely did not.
Then the other day, she went awol again when we were meant to be meeting and said she had fallen asleep early even though it was only 7PM.
Her work colleagues have also complained about her coming back from breaks late. She swears blind she does not.
Not sure if I should be speaking to her or just continuing to monitor it all?
