A weekly visit for Dante, 79, who lives alone in Bacolod
Dante lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Dante, who's 79. Dante lives alone in Bacolod, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 900 kilometers away.
Dante loves birdwatching, 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.

Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Ibadan.
