A weekly phone friend for Mauricio, 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 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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.

Wishing you peace, Mauricio. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Iztapalapa.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope March is when things finally get easier. Love from Kadıköy.
praying for you, Mauricio. Get well soon. God bless.
Rooting for you, Mauricio. Get well soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!
Sending love, Mauricio. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick!
