I got onto this site by chance whilst surfing the net looking for a way to help an elderly friend of mine who lives in Melbourne. I have not had much luck but hope to find something where my friend will have visitors come over and talk with her or share a meal.

Good luck and peace to all.

Cheers
Leslie

Your post was great and a true contribution to the theme.
So what have I’ve been doing good today? Well, my wife was at a shopping trip to Nordby, Sweden today, to fill up the freezer for the Holiday season (much cheaper than in Norway you know :-) and I was holding down the fort, made dinner and took care of the kids.
Besides: I shared dusk and dawn in Oslo with the blogsphere :-)

Here, I have seen elderly people spending long hours at the mall to pass their time during summer.

Life sure is a lonely business but one does crave for company at the dusk of ones life and this is something we all somehow forget…that the dusk comes for all of us!

Kudos for your effort!

Truly inspiring and REAL — thank you for sharing. If only more of the world shared their time with others the way you have…

It’s amazing how much a simple thing like a postcard can brighten one’s day. There was a period when I was a young person out of my depth in Germany, and those bits of mail really cheered up my day. Thank you for doing this. :)

I only know the retirement homes here in Waterloo and they are very well organized. There are a lot of activities for everybody, danse evenings, concerts, theatre even in the public home. I am alway amazed what they are organizing to keep people comfortable. (I go there once a week because our painting group is there). The private homes are real residences and there is even more done. But I know that in Brussels it is not the case especially in public once. It’s sad to say but it is like a parking lot for old people before they die. But they try to improve it at least.
