A kind voice on the phone: Julieta's request
Julieta 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 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thinking of you, Julieta. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. God bless
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Rooting for you, Julieta. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up
You're not alone, Julieta. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Pietermaritzburg
Sending strength, Julieta. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.
