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

After a long COVID relapse, 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.
Glad we found this place.

Sending strength, Murilo. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Semarang but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Semarang!
Good luck, Murilo. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Praying for you, Murilo. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Best of luck, Murilo. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Murilo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
