Companionship wanted: Ishita's baking and a cup of tea
Ishita lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Ishita, who's 92. Ishita lives alone in Brandon, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Ishita loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Manitoba. I'll ask around and let you know.
Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Envigado this morning. Blessings.
Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Alexandria.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Brandon.
Wishing Ishita a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best!
