Companionship wanted: Adaeze's birdwatching and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Adaeze is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Adaeze, who's 91. Adaeze lives alone in Lagos, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 274 kilometers away.
Adaeze loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Rooting for you, Chinedu. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care
So sorry you're going through this, Chinedu. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
