Companionship wanted: Gonzalo's chess and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Gonzalo is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Gonzalo, who's 73. Gonzalo lives alone in Mar del Plata, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Gonzalo loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
Glad we found this place.

sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Take care.
Good luck, Lorena. Get well soon. Take care.
Rooting for you, Lorena. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Wishing you the best, Lorena. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
