I'm writing for my neighbor Maria, who's 84. Maria lives alone in Kharkiv, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 683 kilometers away. Maria loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.

  • Hang in there, Yevhen. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page.

    • Sending good thoughts, Yevhen. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Buenos Aires.
