Could you share an hour a week with Thomas?
Looking for a friendly person in Atlanta to visit Thomas once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Thomas, who's 72. Thomas lives alone in Atlanta, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 236 kilometers away.
Thomas loves knitting, 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 hope life is good to you.

Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Thanks for sharing this, Crystal. Hope you get there
You're not alone, Crystal. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Thanks for sharing this, Crystal. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side
Good luck, Crystal. Shared this with my family. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Crystal. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
Good luck. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Narayanganj this morning. Take care

Hope it all works out, Crystal. Your post was clear and honest
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Greetings from Cairo.
Sending strength. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Nakuru so I could bring a meal
