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

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

    Thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Dodoma.

      so sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours.

        I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Edinburgh.

          Sending love, Grace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you

            I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.

              Good luck, Grace. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
