A weekly visit for Eduardo, 91, who lives alone in Envigado
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Eduardo is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Eduardo, who's 91. Eduardo lives alone in Envigado, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 865 kilometers away.
Eduardo loves gardening, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you the best, Nicolás. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
