Could you share an hour a week with Teresa?

Teresa lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Teresa, who's 86. Teresa lives alone in Coyoacán, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Teresa loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.

    thanks for sharing this, Ricardo. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

    • good luck, Ricardo. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
