Companionship wanted: Mona's baking and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Cairo to visit Mona once a week.
🇪🇬 Cairo, Cairo, Egypt251 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Mona, who's 90. Mona lives alone in Cairo, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 812 kilometers away.
Mona loves baking, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

stay strong. Hope you get there. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Cairo
Hope things get better soon. Get well soon. Put this on a community board in Fresno this morning. God bless.
Wishing you the best, Qasim. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Montego Bay.
