Companionship wanted: Mussa's old films and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Mukono to visit Mussa once a week.
🇺🇬 Mukono, Central Region, Uganda634 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Mussa, who's 76. Mussa lives alone in Mukono, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Mussa loves old films, 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
