Could you share an hour a week with Remedios?

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Remedios is asking for.

San Fernando
I'm writing for my neighbor Remedios, who's 83. Remedios lives alone in San Fernando, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Remedios loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    So sorry you're going through this, Carlo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
