After spinal surgery, 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 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Adrian. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Hope you get there. Sent it to 16 people at work. All the best.
Good luck. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Birmingham.
