Companionship wanted: Dinesh's chess and a cup of tea
Dinesh lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Dinesh, who's 76. Dinesh lives alone in Tiruchirappalli, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Dinesh loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.

Best of luck, Harsh. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Wishing you the best, Harsh. Get well soon. God bless.
Praying for you, Harsh. Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
