Companionship wanted: Sunita's knitting and a cup of tea

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Sunita is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Sunita, who's 90. Sunita lives alone in Mumbai, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Sunita loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Thinking of you, Priya. Wishing Sunita a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best

    • Thinking of you and your family, Priya. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

      • So sorry you're going through this, Priya. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Bahir Dar donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

        • Hope the doctors have good news. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mumbai!

          • Best of luck. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Mumbai.
