A weekly visit for Cristina, 81, who lives alone in Puebla
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Cristina is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Cristina, who's 81. Cristina lives alone in Puebla, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 560 kilometers away.
Cristina loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.
I hope life is good to you.

rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Narayanganj.

Praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Coimbatore but we're thinking of you. Love from Coimbatore.
