A weekly visit for Josiane, 84, who lives alone in Campinas

Josiane lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

Campinas
I'm writing for my neighbor Josiane, who's 84. Josiane lives alone in Campinas, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 319 kilometers away. Josiane loves gardening, 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    Best of luck, Sandra. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.

      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Bogra

        so sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Campinas.
