Companionship wanted: Isaac's baking and a cup of tea
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Isaac is asking for.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria1,257 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Isaac, who's 77. Isaac lives alone in Lagos, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Isaac loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

keep going, Bello. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Bello. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Zaria
Thanks for sharing this, Bello. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Incheon but we're thinking of you.
