A weekly visit for Axel, 77, who lives alone in Houston
Axel lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇺🇸 Houston, Texas, United States134 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Axel, who's 77. Axel lives alone in Houston, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Axel loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person.
All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity.
No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience.

You're not alone. Get well soon. Blessings
Hope it all works out, Henry. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Henry. Shared it with a few friends. God bless
Rooting for you, Henry. Shared this with my family
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you. Take care.
