After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 6 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Kasarani donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Cầu Giấy
hope things get better soon. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Cầu Giấy.
Hope it all works out, Phượng. I hope things turn around soon. Take care

Rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Los Angeles.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Brescia.
Keep going, Phượng. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Bordeaux this morning. Take care.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Aurora but we're thinking of you
Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 18 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you the best, Phượng. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Rooting for you, Phượng. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
Thinking of you and your family, Phượng. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Chicago.
