A weekly phone friend for Renata, recovering at home after a broken pelvis
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a broken pelvis, 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Take care, Renata. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
So sorry you're going through this, Renata. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
