A weekly visit for Eduardo, 76, who lives alone in Rio de Janeiro

Looking for a friendly person in Rio de Janeiro to visit Eduardo once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Eduardo, who's 76. Eduardo lives alone in Rio de Janeiro, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Eduardo loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Take care, Luís. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Savannah but we're thinking of you. All the best

      Thanks for sharing this, Luís. Looking forward to the next update. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best

          Hang in there, Luís. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

            Good luck. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best!
