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

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Chiamaka is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Chiamaka, who's 74. Chiamaka lives alone in Nsukka, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Chiamaka loves knitting, 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

      Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Konya this morning.
