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

I'm writing for my neighbor Pavel, who's 93. Pavel lives alone in Nashik, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Pavel loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.

Good luck, Shefali. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Best of luck, Shefali. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 27 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Rooting for you, Shefali. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Lalitpur but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
