Friendly visitor needed for a 93-year-old neighbor in Albuquerque
Looking for a friendly person in Albuquerque to visit Elijah once a week.
🇺🇸 Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States328 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Elijah, who's 93. Elijah lives alone in Albuquerque, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 361 kilometers away.
Elijah loves birdwatching, 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Greetings from Rome.
Hope it all works out, Gianna. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best!
Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Albuquerque.
Wishing you the best, Gianna. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Leipzig.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 20 people at work. Greetings from Jabalpur
You're not alone. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Dublin.
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Albuquerque.
