Dinesh is isolated after spinal surgery: a call a week would help
Dinesh is housebound after spinal surgery and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After spinal surgery, 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 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.

praying for you. Shared this with my family. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Good luck, Dinesh. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Radom.
Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Los Angeles.
hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Nottingham.
stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours.
