Ariana is isolated after spinal surgery: a call a week would help

No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After spinal surgery, 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 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Stay strong, Ariana. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Sandton but we're thinking of you. Blessings

    • Rooting for you, Ariana. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking

      • You're not alone. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Alcalá de Henares
