Manuel is isolated after a broken pelvis: a call a week would help
Manuel is housebound after a broken pelvis and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After a broken pelvis, I have been mostly housebound for 12 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 hope life is good to you.

Praying for you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Love from Kumasi.
Hang in there, Manuel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Mandurah so I could bring a meal. Take care!
