After spinal surgery, 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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 for reading my story.

Sending good thoughts, Philippe. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Wishing Philippe a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Thanks for sharing this, Philippe. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Uppsala this morning.
