Got a job offer, don’t have any professional references

Hey, I just got an offer for a job and they asked for two professional references. The problem is that I don't have any. I've done a few jobs in the past but I was very vague about the timeframe on my resume as I've had a large gap in my work history due to health issues. I haven't kept in contact with any co-workers, bosses or school colleagues. I wouldn't even know who to contact it's been so long. I'm not sure what to do. Does anyone have any ideas? I've heard some people will give references on this sub but not sure how that would work (I live in Toronto, Canada). Thanks
