Companionship wanted: Madhuri's local history and a cup of tea

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Madhuri is asking for.

Jabalpur
I'm writing for my neighbor Madhuri, who's 72. Madhuri lives alone in Jabalpur, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Madhuri loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    • Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

      • Hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Karachi.

                          stay strong. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

                          • Best of luck, Snehal. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best

                            • Sending good thoughts, Snehal. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Madina.
