Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Mim in Dhaka

Mim needs company and a little help with meals; I need a few hours to work without worrying.

I'm Abdul, and I look after my sister at home in Dhaka. Mim has failing eyesight and should not be alone for long stretches. I work long days at the clinic, and the gap on Monday and Wednesday afternoons is the hardest part of my week. What I need is someone calm and reliable to be in the house from about 2pm until 5pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care. Mim loves old photographs and will talk your ear off about it. I'm home before dark and will always leave the phone numbers of the doctor and a neighbor. I'd like to meet you first with Mim present, and I'm happy to give a reference from our doctor's office. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more. Thank you. A few hours from you would make a real difference to our week.
