Friendly visitor needed for an 86-year-old neighbor in Buenos Aires
Mercedes lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Mercedes, who's 86. Mercedes lives alone in Buenos Aires, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Mercedes loves opera, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

This could happen to any of us. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too
