At some point in time, we all have been separated from our families. What are the ways you all cope with being away from your loved ones?

 

For myself, I find it very tough. I am divorced now and separated from my son. I work 260 miles from where he lives, so I go home to see him as much as possible. I am slowly trying to find new things to do to keep me occupied, but it is difficult. He is my world and it is just rough without him.
