I'm writing for my neighbor Tammy, who's 75. Tammy lives alone in San Francisco, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Tammy loves birdwatching, 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • wishing you the best, Leonardo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Jodhpur.

    • You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Hope the doctors have good news. Put this on a community board in Rohini this morning. Love from Rohini.

        • it takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of San Francisco

          • rooting for you, Leonardo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from São Paulo

            • Wishing you the best, Leonardo. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in San Antonio but we're thinking of you

              • Keep going, Leonardo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 22 people at work.
