A kind voice on the phone: Fergal's request
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 12 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Wishing Fergal a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Dublin.
sending good thoughts, Fergal. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Take care. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
thinking of you, Fergal. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Blessings
Wishing you the best, Fergal. This could happen to any of us
