After a stroke, I have been mostly housebound for 8 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.
Glad we found this place.

wishing you peace, Wondimu. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Blessings.
Hang in there, Wondimu. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Adama.
So sorry you're going through this, Wondimu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Phuket.
