A weekly visit for Luca, 88, who lives alone in Buffalo
Luca lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Luca, who's 88. Luca lives alone in Buffalo, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Luca loves baking, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

get well soon. I hope February is when things finally get easier. Take care.
This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Takoradi
