After a serious car accident, 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Keep going, Hiroshi. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Montpellier.
Sending good thoughts, Hiroshi. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best
Best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Kobe
