After chemotherapy, I have been mostly housebound for 4 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 23 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
hope it all works out. Wishing Chathurika a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up. All the best.
Good luck, Chathurika. Your post was clear and honest. God bless
Keep going, Chathurika. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Ikeja this morning. Love from Ikeja.
you're not alone, Chathurika. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
