Looking for a friendly person in Hamburg to visit Jonas once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Jonas, who's 89. Jonas lives alone in Hamburg, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Jonas loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    sending good thoughts, Birgit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings!

      Wishing Jonas a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Put this on a community board in Cincinnati this morning. Take care

        stay strong. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

        • Eli Grant

          Thinking of you, Birgit. Shared this with my family.

            Get well soon. After 8 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
