A kind voice on the phone: Kimani's request
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a major depressive episode, I have been mostly housebound for 8 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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 hope life is good to you.

Best of luck, Kimani. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Kimani. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Dammam
Sending good thoughts, Kimani. Get well soon. Take care.
Thinking of you and your family, Kimani. Get well soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Mbarara.
Take care. Shared this with my family. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
