After spinal surgery, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Mohammedia.

    • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Kharkiv.

      • Sending strength, Agus. Shared it with a few friends. Take care

        • Take care, Agus. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care

          • Wishing you the best, Agus. Shared it with a few friends. After 15 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless!

            • hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 12 people at work. Love from Howrah

              • you're not alone, Agus. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes

                • Praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!

                  • Thanks for sharing this, Agus. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless!

                    • Good luck, Agus. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.

                      • Sending good thoughts, Agus. This could happen to any of us. God bless.

                        • Take care. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care
