Friendly visitor needed for a 72-year-old neighbor in Uberlândia

Looking for a friendly person in Uberlândia to visit Carolina once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Carolina, who's 72. Carolina lives alone in Uberlândia, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Carolina 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. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • Hope you get there. We're a small family in Mesa but we're thinking of you

    • keep going, Sônia. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care

      • You're not alone, Sônia. Wishing Carolina a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up.

        • Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Mardan this morning. Love from Mardan.

          • Thanks for sharing this, Sônia. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Vitória da Conquista
