After a stroke, 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 30 minutes a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- listening, patience

thinking of you and your family, Christian. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care.
take care. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

Wishing Christian a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Bakersfield.
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Fort Worth.
