Companionship wanted: Bushra's local history and a cup of tea

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Bushra, who's 93. Bushra lives alone in Faisalabad, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Bushra loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • thinking of you, Maryam. Wishing Bushra a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.

    • You're not alone, Maryam. Shared it with a few friends.
