After spinal surgery, 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.
Thank you so much.

So sorry you're going through this, Karan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Tucson.
Wishing you the best, Karan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Love from Bellevue
