After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 5 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.
Glad we found this place.

Rooting for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Kolkata.
