Companionship wanted: Petro's knitting and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Rome to visit Petro once a week.
🇮🇹 Rome, Lazio, Italy1,500 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Petro, who's 85. Petro lives alone in Rome, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 386 kilometers away.
Petro loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 12 people at work. Greetings from Scranton.
Thinking of you, Diana. Shared this with my family. God bless
Hang in there. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Accra.
Take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Love from Södertälje.
Get well soon. My neighbor in Feira de Santana donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
