Companionship wanted: Nuria's crossword puzzles and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Iztapalapa to visit Nuria once a week.
🇲🇽 Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico377 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Nuria, who's 83. Nuria lives alone in Iztapalapa, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Nuria loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing Nuria a smooth procedure and a full recovery
Stay strong. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Iztapalapa.
Hope things get better soon, Julieta. Hope this works out for you. Don't give up. Take care.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Quezon City!
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 25 people at work
I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Iztapalapa!
Get well soon. Put this on a community board in Mansoura this morning. Love from Mansoura.
hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings
Hope it all works out, Julieta. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Caloocan.
Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Syracuse.
Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Ciudad de México but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Iztapalapa.
Thinking of you and your family, Julieta. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
sending good thoughts, Julieta. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Hang in there, Julieta. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Sending good thoughts, Julieta. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope December is when things finally get easier
