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

After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 10 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.

Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care!
Rooting for you, Rodrigo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
wishing Rodrigo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings
wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Seoul
Stay strong, Rodrigo. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Albuquerque.
Hope this works out for you. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Albuquerque
Rooting for you, Rodrigo. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Thinking of you and your family, Rodrigo. Get well soon.
Thinking of you and your family, Rodrigo. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Best of luck, Rodrigo. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
You're not alone, Rodrigo. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Good luck, Rodrigo. I hope things turn around soon.
shared this with my family. We're a small family in Sydney but we're thinking of you. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
