Companionship wanted: Vihaan's crossword puzzles and a cup of tea
Looking for a friendly person in Brooklyn to visit Vihaan once a week.
🇺🇸 Brooklyn, New York, United States1,210 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Vihaan, who's 75. Vihaan lives alone in Brooklyn, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Vihaan loves crossword puzzles, 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 hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you. Hope the doctors have good news
sending love, Saanvi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Sending strength, Saanvi. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Brooklyn.
