Companionship wanted: Brigitte's knitting and a cup of tea

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Brigitte, who's 76. Brigitte lives alone in Boulogne-Billancourt, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 339 kilometers away. Brigitte loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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. I hope life is good to you.

  • You're not alone. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Jakarta.

    • stay strong, Céline. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!
