Companionship wanted: Aleena's local history and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Aleena is asking for.
🇵🇰 Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan915 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Aleena, who's 88. Aleena lives alone in Rawalpindi, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Aleena loves local history, 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Hope you get there. My neighbor in Nairobi donated after I showed her your page.
Best of luck, Nimra. I hope things turn around soon. Take care
hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Dublin!
So sorry you're going through this, Nimra. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Toulouse so I could bring a meal. Take care!
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Rawalpindi.
Rooting for you, Nimra. Wishing Aleena a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up. Thinking of Rawalpindi.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Corpus Christi
good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
Sending love, Nimra. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
hope the doctors have good news. After 6 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
