Likoni
I'm writing for my neighbor Chebet, who's 82. Chebet lives alone in Likoni, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 847 kilometers away. Chebet loves gardening, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.

  • hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Los Angeles.

    • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Likoni

      • hope it all works out, Muthoni. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

        • take care, Muthoni. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Dhaka this morning.
