Mandaue
I'm writing for my neighbor Remedios, who's 74. Remedios lives alone in Mandaue, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Remedios loves cricket, 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Keep going, Aileen. I hope things turn around soon. After 13 years in public service I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.

    • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Madrid but we're thinking of you. Blessings
