Companionship wanted: Mazen's knitting and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Cairo to visit Mazen once a week.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Cairo, Egypt1,197 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Mazen, who's 76. Mazen lives alone in Cairo, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Mazen loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 hour a week

Sending love. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
sending strength, Yusuf. Hope this works out for you.
Sending love, Yusuf. Hope you get there. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Bursa
Sending strength, Yusuf. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Amsterdam
