Companionship wanted: Sofia's chess and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Södertälje to visit Sofia once a week.
🇸🇪 Södertälje, Stockholm, Sweden981 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Sofia, who's 85. Sofia lives alone in Södertälje, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Sofia loves chess, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

sending love, Torsten. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
You're not alone. Your post was clear and honest. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Torsten. Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
