Beatriz is isolated after a long hospital stay: a call a week would help
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 6 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.
Thank you so much.

keep going, Beatriz. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
You're not alone, Beatriz. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Wollongong
Hang in there, Beatriz. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 26 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Nagoya.
