A weekly phone friend for Teguh, 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 7 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.

Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope December is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 27 people at work. God bless.
Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Houston.
Hope it all works out. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Ciudad de M茅xico donated after I showed her your page. Love from Ciudad de M茅xico
