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
