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

After chemotherapy, I have been mostly housebound for 10 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

sending strength. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Bordeaux
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best
Rooting for you, Isabelle. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings
