Companionship wanted: Dhruv's opera and a cup of tea

Looking for a friendly person in Warangal to visit Dhruv once a week.

Warangal
I'm writing for my neighbor Dhruv, who's 75. Dhruv lives alone in Warangal, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Dhruv loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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. Thank you so much.

  • Rooting for you, Vinayak. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 23 people at work.

      Sending strength. Hope you get there. Love from Luxor.

      • Hope things get better soon, Vinayak. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest

        • Keep going. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Lagos

          • Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Austin so I could bring a meal. Blessings.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Vinayak. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

              • Thinking of you and your family, Vinayak. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.

                • Take care, Vinayak. Wishing Dhruv a smooth procedure and a full recovery.

                  • Sending strength, Vinayak. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

                    • Sending strength, Vinayak. Shared it with a few friends.

                      • gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta so I could bring a meal.

                          You're not alone. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Porto Alegre but we're thinking of you.

                          • Good luck, Vinayak. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings.

                            • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Auckland.

                              • Good luck, Vinayak. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best
