what a lovely thing to say chicme! such a kind offer.
but be careful, there are some people who "snoop" here, without fibro, and I wouldn't want you taking a risk.
are there any neighbours who might need a cheery hello?
I found that story very moving too, Once or twice, in the past,I called my phonebank and listened to all my transactions, just to hear another voice and then the chance to say "next"!
respect,
sandra.
thank you for your message but i wouldn't be doing anythingy wrong for the snoops to complain about as my son is a chef will be doing the cooking an has a car so would come with an take me. an if people like that have nothing better to do then god help em !! they can take everything away from us but not our kindness to help even one poor person that is sitting alone on Christmas day. i hope you have someone with you on the day because that would be awfu for you l.xxx
what a lovely thing to do if the world was made up of more people like you what a wonderful world we would have....god bless you and your son......x
It is really sad- I tried to volunteer at a charity to go and spend some time with older people but I was turned away because the lady who ran it wanted me to meet with her once a month early in the morning when I would have been at work and unfortunately I just couldn't take that time - I asked her if I could meet her at her convenience later in the day or at weekends but she said no. I understand in a way that we have processes etc but I think maybe I could have helped one or two people be less lonely ...
It's a bit like the song Eleanor Rigby- a beetles classic but I have to say I do rather like this version by Ray Charles- what a legend!

I think from time to time we are all rather lonely irrespective of age or marital status but if we could all spare a little time and consideration wouldn't it just be a wonderful world...

Thank you Chicme, we were watching Text Santa and saw the lady you mention in your post. We were so touched by her story that we donated £5, a very worthy cause and a heartbreaking story. There are so many people out there who will be alone with just their memories this Christmas and New Year.
If we have family, we are very blessed.
Your message was lovely and your offer so generous. You deserve a good Christmas!
Bless you!
