A weekly visit for Grace, 79, who lives alone in Toronto
Looking for a friendly person in Toronto to visit Grace once a week.
🇨🇦 Toronto, Ontario, Canada654 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Grace, who's 79. Grace lives alone in Toronto, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Grace loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.

Your post was clear and honest. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too!
hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Sending love, Taylor. I hope things turn around soon. After 16 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
