After a serious car accident, I have been mostly housebound for 5 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

- 30 minutes a week

rooting for you, Haritha. Looking forward to the next update
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 13 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything
So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Cox's Bazar
Sending love. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
