A weekly visit for Vijay, 85, who lives alone in Aurangabad

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Vijay, who's 85. Vijay lives alone in Aurangabad, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Vijay loves crossword puzzles, 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Nisha. I hope things turn around soon.

    • Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Santarém

      • Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Aurangabad.

        • Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Aurangabad.

          • Best of luck, Nisha. Get well soon. Greetings from Macon.

            • Take care, Nisha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best

              • Sending good thoughts, Nisha. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
