Friendly visitor needed for a 77-year-old neighbor in Pune
Yamini lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Yamini, who's 77. Yamini lives alone in Pune, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Yamini loves gardening, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Best of luck. Wishing Yamini a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 12 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
hope it all works out, Ashok. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Alcalá de Henares.
Hope things get better soon, Ashok. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Pune
