A weekly visit for Theophilus, 75, who lives alone in Accra
Theophilus lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇬🇭 Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana929 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Theophilus, who's 75. Theophilus lives alone in Accra, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 334 kilometers away.
Theophilus loves cricket, 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.
Glad we found this place.

Rooting for you, Vida. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Wishing Theophilus a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update.
Wishing you peace, Vida. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
