A weekly visit for Pauline, 85, who lives alone in Hamilton
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Pauline is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Pauline, who's 85. Pauline lives alone in Hamilton, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Pauline loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Take care, Louise. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Kota
Praying for you, Louise. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. Love from Tlaquepaque.
