A kind voice on the phone: Guadalupe's request
Guadalupe is housebound after a serious car accident and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After a serious car accident, 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 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.

Hope things get better soon. Get well soon. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Hope things get better soon, Guadalupe. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Rome.
Thanks for sharing this. Wishing Guadalupe a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Nuremberg.
Thinking of you and your family, Guadalupe. This could happen to any of us. Love from Epe.
Keep going, Guadalupe. Looking forward to the next update. Take care
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
