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

I'm writing for my neighbor Pari, who's 84. Pari lives alone in Amritsar, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Pari loves birdwatching, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending good thoughts, Swati. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 19 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
