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

I'm writing for my neighbor Opio, who's 78. Opio lives alone in Nairobi, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Opio loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.

Shared this with my family. Greetings from Auckland
hang in there, Faith. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Jabalpur donated after I showed her your page
Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Faisalabad so I could bring a meal. All the best.
You're not alone, Faith. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Sent it to 37 people at work. Love from Sheffield
Stay strong. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Augsburg
