downsizing services
Every Miles Away story is different, yet they all have one thing in common.
"I got accepted to a top university in another state, moved away, met my first true love while in school, graduated and got a perfect job with an ideal company and then started to have a family of my own shortly thereafter..."
Or it may go like this...
"I worked for a company for years, everything seemed to be in perfect balance and place and then, once in life time job promotion comes along in another state and I just couldn't miss on it...so we packed our stuff, sold our house and moved across the country to a new home..."
Regardless of the story, you are away from your parents and grandparents and cannot physically assist them when they need it the most.
