A weekly visit for Jordan, 75, who lives alone in Southampton
Looking for a friendly person in Southampton to visit Jordan once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Jordan, who's 75. Jordan lives alone in Southampton, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 700 kilometers away.
Jordan 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.

You're not alone, Dustin. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
hope you get there. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Love from Saint-Denis.
Thanks for sharing this, Dustin. Get well soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Hang in there, Dustin. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Southampton.
