Could you share an hour a week with Courtney?
Looking for a friendly person in Allentown to visit Courtney once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Courtney, who's 84. Courtney lives alone in Allentown, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 544 kilometers away.
Courtney loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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 so much.

So sorry you're going through this, Anthony. Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
Good luck, Anthony. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Anthony. Wishing Courtney a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Allentown.
Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Thanks for sharing this, Anthony. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Surakarta donated after I showed her your page. All the best
Good luck. Wishing Courtney a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours
thanks for sharing this, Anthony. This could happen to any of us
Thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Angeles donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Allentown.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Love from Gaya.
Sending love. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Best of luck, Anthony. Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Sending love, Anthony. Wishing Courtney a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Miami.
You're not alone. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
get well soon. Greetings from Timișoara!
