After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 3 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.
Thank you so much.

Sending love. Wishing Eko a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings!
Praying for you, Eko. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Brisbane donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thinking of you and your family, Eko. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Manukau this morning. Blessings.
Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Birmingham!
Sending strength, Eko. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Lapu-Lapu but we're thinking of you. Love from Lapu-Lapu.
hope it all works out. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
