Companionship wanted: Fiona's opera and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Ekurhuleni to visit Fiona once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Fiona, who's 83. Fiona lives alone in Ekurhuleni, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Fiona loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. Hope the doctors have good news. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Blessings
sending good thoughts, Sipho F. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
