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

I'm writing for my neighbor Manuel, who's 72. Manuel lives alone in Cali, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Manuel loves birdwatching, 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- In person in Cali
- skills
- kindness, patience

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Makati
good luck. Wishing Manuel a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

Keep going, Arturo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Sending good thoughts. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Sent it to 35 people at work. Take care.
good luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Incheon this morning. All the best.
