Could you share an hour a week with Shilpa?
Shilpa lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Shilpa, who's 89. Shilpa lives alone in Nagpur, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Shilpa loves cricket, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts, Anand. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Praying for you, Anand. Hope this works out for you.
Stay strong. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Padua
