Companionship wanted: Ling's chess and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in El Paso to visit Ling once a week.
🇺🇸 El Paso, Texas, United States921 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Ling, who's 87. Ling lives alone in El Paso, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Ling 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing Ling a smooth procedure and a full recovery
Take care, Min. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Vadodara but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Thinking of you, Min. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings
I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Love from Vitória da Conquista.
