Friendly visitor needed for a 92-year-old neighbor in Sylhet
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Shefali is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Shefali, who's 92. Shefali lives alone in Sylhet, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Shefali loves gardening, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings
Rooting for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't give up. Greetings from Tarkwa
Sending strength. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Good luck, Tanvir. Shared this with my family. Take care.
Keep going, Tanvir. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
