After a stroke, 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.

Stay strong, Hùng. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
hang in there. Shared this with my family. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Mandeville.
Get well soon. Love from Southampton
Sending good thoughts, Hùng. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
