A weekly phone friend for Jagath, recovering at home after chemotherapy
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After chemotherapy, 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.

Wishing you the best. Get well soon
Thanks for sharing this, Jagath. Wishing Jagath a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 9 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
best of luck, Jagath. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Mbale
