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

After a stroke, I have been mostly housebound for 10 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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.

Rooting for you, Kendall. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Keep going, Kendall. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
