After a long hospital stay, 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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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.

        So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!

          This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Poznań donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
