A weekly visit for Janani, 74, who lives alone in Mumbai
Janani lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇮🇳 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India934 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Janani, who's 74. Janani lives alone in Mumbai, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Janani loves knitting, 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.
Thank you so much.

Keep going. Wishing Janani a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Bharath. Get well soon. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Pune.
