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

I'm writing for my neighbor Laura, who's 72. Laura lives alone in Guadalupe, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Laura loves knitting, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thanks for sharing this, Rosa. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
you're not alone, Rosa. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Kano so I could bring a meal.
