Friendly visitor needed for an 86-year-old neighbor in Quezon City
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that is all Cecilia is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Cecilia, who's 86. Cecilia lives alone in Quezon City, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Cecilia loves knitting, 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

good luck, Aileen. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Kikuyu so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Good luck, Aileen. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Best of luck, Aileen. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Gatineau!
