A kind voice on the phone: Imani's request
Imani is housebound after a long hospital stay and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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.
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

Best of luck, Imani. Shared it with a few friends. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Good luck, Imani. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Mangaluru.
