Friendly visitor needed for an 81-year-old neighbor in Lahore
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Humaira is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Humaira, who's 81. Humaira lives alone in Lahore, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Humaira 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Aleena. Shared it with a few friends.
Praying for you. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Rawalpindi.
