A weekly visit for Zaid, 78, who lives alone in Marrakesh

Zaid lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Zaid, who's 78. Zaid lives alone in Marrakesh, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Zaid loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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. Thank you so much.

  • Hope things get better soon, Lina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Joliet.

    • keep going, Lina. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Nizamabad
