Friendly visitor needed for a 93-year-old neighbor in Duque de Caxias
Looking for a friendly person in Duque de Caxias to visit Maria once a week.
🇧🇷 Duque de Caxias, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil286 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Maria, who's 93. Maria lives alone in Duque de Caxias, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Maria loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.

Best of luck, Rafaela. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this. 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. Love from Haarlem
Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Duque de Caxias.
Stay strong, Rafaela. I hope things turn around soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Lucknow.
Get well soon. Sent it to 8 people at work. God bless
