A weekly phone friend for Nithya, 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 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 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

                        I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 15 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

                          Good luck, Nithya. Wishing Nithya a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
