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

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Erlangga, who's 94. Erlangga lives alone in Bogor, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Erlangga 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Very responsive and caring

    I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.
