A weekly visit for Festus, 78, who lives alone in Asaba

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Festus is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Festus, who's 78. Festus lives alone in Asaba, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 637 kilometers away. Festus loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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 so much.

  • Wishing you peace, Segun. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Mumbai

    • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Raleigh but we're thinking of you.
