Friendly visitor needed for a 73-year-old neighbor in Québec
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Juliette is asking for.
🇨🇦 Québec, Quebec, Canada658 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Juliette, who's 73. Juliette lives alone in Québec, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Juliette loves crossword puzzles, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope it all works out. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Ho.
Sending love, Colette. Shared this with my family.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Seoul.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Québec
Get well soon. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
