A weekly visit for Gabriela, 91, who lives alone in San Diego

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Gabriela, who's 91. Gabriela lives alone in San Diego, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 755 kilometers away. Gabriela loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.

  • Wishing Gabriela a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
