After chemotherapy, I have been mostly housebound for 3 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Kawasaki this morning. All the best.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Spanish Town this morning. Thinking of Coventry
Hang in there, Ryan. Your post was clear and honest.
Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Accra.
