After spinal surgery, 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.

Take care, Tomás. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Adama this morning.
Thinking of you and your family. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from San Jose.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 11 years in social work I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Love from Khulna
Thinking of you and your family. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. It's not much but it's yours.
Stay strong, Tomás. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Hope it all works out, Tomás. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
So sorry you're going through this, Tomás. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Dasmariñas donated after I showed her your page
stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Pune
