Companionship wanted: Adaeze's knitting 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 72. Adaeze lives alone in Wudil, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Adaeze loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.

Thinking of you and your family, Ibrahim. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Ibrahim. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal!
hope it all works out, Ibrahim. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Stockholm.
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Colombo
