Friendly visitor needed for a 73-year-old neighbor in Jakarta
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Iwan is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Iwan, who's 73. Iwan lives alone in Jakarta, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Iwan loves baking, 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.
Thank you so much.

Sending strength. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Durgapur
Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Mumbai.
Hang in there, Wahyu. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. Love from Dhaka!
You're not alone, Wahyu. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Jakarta.
Thinking of you, Wahyu. Get well soon. Blessings.
wishing you peace, Wahyu. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Your post was clear and honest. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
hope it all works out, Wahyu. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
