THE FLIP SIDE

I read Connie Proteau’s “Only the Lonely” (October) with interest, but maybe someone should write an article that focuses on the CARP survey statistics flipped on their head; that means, pay attention to the fact that 91 per cent were not starved for company, 90 per cent had someone to turn to and 85 per cent were happy with doing things alone. Figure out what they are doing right and use that information to help the 10 per cent who had issues with isolation and loneliness. Keep doing the good work, CARP. —Sue L.T. McGregor, via email
