A weekly visit for Su-bin, 91, who lives alone in Seoul
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Su-bin is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Su-bin, who's 91. Su-bin lives alone in Seoul, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Su-bin loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.
Glad we found this place.

This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Thinking of Seoul.
shared this with my family. Sent it to 20 people at work.
Hang in there, Ji-min. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care!
Good luck, Ji-min. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings
Praying for you, Ji-min. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Mansoura.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Ludhiana
Best of luck, Ji-min. Your post was clear and honest. God bless.
