A kind voice on the phone: Gül's request

Gül is housebound after a broken pelvis and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After a broken pelvis, 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 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Hope it all works out, Gül. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.

        Hope things get better soon, Gül. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
