Friendly visitor needed for an 81-year-old neighbor in Nsukka
Kehinde lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Kehinde, who's 81. Kehinde lives alone in Nsukka, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Kehinde loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

wishing you peace. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours!
Hope things get better soon, Nkechi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Take care
Sending love. Wishing Kehinde a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Wish I lived closer to Corpus Christi so I could bring a meal.
Hang in there. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Ogbomosho donated after I showed her your page.
Sending strength. Get well soon. We're a small family in Embakasi but we're thinking of you.
get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Nkechi. Wishing Kehinde a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
