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

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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

- 30 minutes a week

Keep going, Susanne. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Keep going, Susanne. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 13 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
