You may be lucky enough to have close family members or a loved one who can dedicate his or her days to helping you through this, but for many solo women, we need to rely on our friends. However, a friendship can go so far, after a few days most of your buddies will need to tend to their own lives, which can leave you without the proper care or assistance you may require.
