After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 12 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.
Glad we found this place.

hang in there. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Wishing Annabelle a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Good luck, Annabelle. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Fort Worth!
sending good thoughts, Annabelle. Shared it with a few friends.
