Friendly visitor needed for an 87-year-old neighbor in San Antonio
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Deborah is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Deborah, who's 87. Deborah lives alone in San Antonio, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Deborah 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.

You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Hope you get there. After 8 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of San Antonio
