I don't want marriage. You know why? Because I did that. I did it for 32 years.
And so I was very grateful that I didn't do the British stiff upper lip, but I went straight to a therapist. And she was wonderful and helpful, and I went for about two years.
I don't put off any time with my grandchildren. I don't put off a thing.
I don't want to marry again. I did that.

Over the last few years, my comfort level with how I look has improved. My age has helped. You get used to yourself and accept yourself.
I became the butterfly. I got out of the cocoon, and I flew.
I believe I have lots of time. I have to believe that, that it won't come back, and that that's why I'm in good hands. But I also do live my life by putting nothing off.
I'm also doing constant book readings, movies. You name it, I'm doing it.
