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

After a stroke, 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.

Take care, Mwangi. Wishing Mwangi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Mbale
Sending love. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Mbarara donated after I showed her your page
Hope things get better soon, Mwangi. Get well soon. We're a small family in Feira de Santana but we're thinking of you. Love from Feira de Santana
Thinking of you and your family, Mwangi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending love. Shared this with my family. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless
