Could you share an hour a week with Khalid?
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Khalid is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Khalid, who's 72. Khalid lives alone in Lahore, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Khalid loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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 for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Wishing you peace, Qasim. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 28 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything
