A weekly visit for Rizky, 84, who lives alone in Surakarta
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Rizky is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Rizky, who's 84. Rizky lives alone in Surakarta, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Rizky loves chess, 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.

take care, Ani. Shared this with my family. God bless
shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Stellenbosch so I could bring a meal. Love from Nashik
sending good thoughts. Hope the doctors have good news. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Ani. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Surakarta.
