I'm writing for my neighbor Rylee, who's 94. Rylee lives alone in Birmingham, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 363 kilometers away. Rylee loves local history, 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • praying for you, Christopher. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend

    • Wishing Rylee a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

      • so sorry you're going through this, Christopher. Shared this with my family. All the best

        • Best of luck, Christopher. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out
