After a long COVID relapse, 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.

    Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

    • Keep going. Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.

      • Looking forward to the next update. After 29 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto.
