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

I'm writing for my neighbor Mónica, who's 88. Mónica lives alone in Envigado, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Mónica loves opera, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Glendale.
Keep going, Eduardo. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from La Plata.
Wishing you peace. Wishing Mónica a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Eduardo. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Tiruchirappalli donated after I showed her your page. Love from Tiruchirappalli.
Best of luck. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Mardan.
