A kind voice on the phone: Beatriz's request
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.
Anywhere in the worldPosted Oct 1, 2026507 views
After a serious car accident, I have been mostly housebound for 4 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like music, books and gardening, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.

Best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Ikeja
Rooting for you, Beatriz. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 18 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. After 25 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Chattogram.
So sorry you're going through this, Beatriz. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
You're not alone. Get well soon.
Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted
Wishing you peace, Beatriz. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
Hope you get there. Love from Da Nang!
Good luck. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending love. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Take care.
Wishing you peace. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
