No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After spinal surgery, I have been mostly housebound for 3 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

- 30 minutes a week

Thinking of you, Lokesh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 6 people at work. Greetings from London.
so sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto.
hope things get better soon, Lokesh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. Love from Pune.
Hope it all works out, Lokesh. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Wishing Lokesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My neighbor in Adama donated after I showed her your page.
Good luck, Lokesh. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
Sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Kampala.
Good luck. Wishing Lokesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
