A weekly visit for Latha, 73, who lives alone in Thane
Latha lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Latha, who's 73. Latha lives alone in Thane, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Latha loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.
I hope life is good to you.

You're not alone, Naresh. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together.
Sending strength, Naresh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Fortaleza so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 11 people at work
Stay strong. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Thane.
Hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Thane.
