After chemotherapy, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending good thoughts, Megan. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Manukau
