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

I'm writing for my neighbor Tuğba, who's 91. Tuğba lives alone in Istanbul, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Tuğba loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

thanks for sharing this, Duygu. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Love from San Cristóbal de las Casas.
