You are doing great Lou. You have had major stress and change in your life. Most people would still be in a puddle. Just as an observer it sounds like you are onto something with your relative's coffee cafe. Also any of the courses your cousin told you about and that online stuff.

Could you do something like dog walker/pet sitting? Not forever but just to earn some money to help fund the tuition for those courses? Just thinking that all that walking might be fun with a furry friend. If you got a few clients you can make your own hours and decide which clients you will take on. It is low overhead to get things started.

Just thinking I desperately need to make money but more than anything I realized I need to feel like I am running towards something rather than feeling discarded. Does that make sense?
