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

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Tammy, who's 72. Tammy lives alone in Columbus, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Tammy loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.

  • Sending love, Luca. Your post was clear and honest. After 14 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

    • sending strength, Luca. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

      • Stay strong. Wishing Tammy a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.

        • Thinking of you and your family, Luca. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Birmingham this morning. All the best.
