After chemotherapy, 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.

You're not alone, Sabbir. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. God bless
Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Saket
Keep going, Sabbir. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Tokyo so I could bring a meal.
Hang in there, Sabbir. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Wishing you peace. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Saket.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Istanbul
Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Mohammedia.
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Saket.
take care, Sabbir. Hope you get there.
Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Ibadan donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Sabbir. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
wishing you peace, Sabbir. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
praying for you, Sabbir. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Quezon City but we're thinking of you. Blessings!
Take care, Sabbir. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't give up. Love from Medellín.
Hope things get better soon, Sabbir. Hope you get there. Love from Eldoret.
