Friendly visitor needed for a 93-year-old neighbor in Muzaffarpur

Dhanalakshmi lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

Muzaffarpur
I'm writing for my neighbor Dhanalakshmi, who's 93. Dhanalakshmi lives alone in Muzaffarpur, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away. Dhanalakshmi loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Tuesday 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.
