Friendly visitor needed for an 82-year-old neighbor in Gazipur
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Ishrat is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Ishrat, who's 82. Ishrat lives alone in Gazipur, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Ishrat loves baking, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this, Tahmina. I hope things turn around soon. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Blessings!
Get well soon. Thinking of Gazipur
Thinking of you and your family, Tahmina. Get well soon
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't give up. All the best.
Keep going, Tahmina. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Sukkur so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Gazipur.
