　　Jackie has lived alone in Grays,Essex,since her husband died three years ago.

　　The couple have two daughters Michelle，50，and Karen，54.

　　Jackie added：“My youngest daughter worries about me—she doesn’t think I should work as much as I do.I constantly say ‘don’t worry about me，I’m fine’，but she never believes me.I don’t like the thought of giving it up and will try to keep going forever.”
