After a long hospital stay, I have been mostly housebound for 5 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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.

a colleague of mine might know someone for this in Ashanti. I'll ask around and let you know.
thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Wishing you peace, Janet. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
