A weekly phone friend for Ngọc, recovering at home after chemotherapy
Ngọc is housebound after chemotherapy and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After chemotherapy, 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope things get better soon, Ngọc. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Sending strength, Ngọc. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Bogra.
