After a long COVID relapse, 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 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.

Take care. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless
Hang in there, Vinh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Love from İzmir.
Thinking of you, Vinh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Stay strong, Vinh. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless!
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless
Hang in there. Hope you get there. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
