Epe
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. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

      so sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care

        hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Epe.

          You're not alone. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
