"This project is not just about recovering words. There is another problem. Older people find it increasingly difficult to find someone to tell their stories to. They are increasingly finding themselves living alone. They cope with admirable dignity and optimism, of course, because they know how to express themselves and excitement is the last thing to be lost. Who knows what goes through their heads when they open their front door and invariably smile. So the problem of ignoring them, obviously, is ours. We forget about the richest and best social media we have at our fingertips. The Amigos de los Mayores are there to remind us."
