Companionship wanted: Jennifer's gardening and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Cambridge to visit Jennifer once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Jennifer, who's 77. Jennifer lives alone in Cambridge, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Jennifer loves gardening, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Sending love. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Cambridge.
sending good thoughts, Danielle. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Montego Bay so I could bring a meal.
wishing you the best. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
