Companionship wanted: Sneha's opera and a cup of tea

Sneha lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

Rohini
I'm writing for my neighbor Sneha, who's 89. Sneha lives alone in Rohini, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Sneha loves opera, 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

            Hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Dortmund.

            • Take care, Payal. This could happen to any of us. Take care

              • You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Orlando.

                  • Hope things get better soon, Payal. Get well soon. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out

                    • Rooting for you, Payal. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together

                      • Hope it all works out, Payal. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Dhaka.

                        • So sorry you're going through this, Payal. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My neighbor in Alexandria donated after I showed her your page. Love from Alexandria.

                          • Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless

                            • Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Dublin

                              • Keep going, Payal. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update. All the best
