A weekly visit for Patrícia, 80, who lives alone in São Paulo

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Patrícia is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Patrícia, who's 80. Patrícia lives alone in São Paulo, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Patrícia 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    Wishing you the best, Ricardo. This could happen to any of us.

    • Thanks for sharing this, Ricardo. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Liverpool

      • get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
