After a broken pelvis, I have been mostly housebound for 10 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

        Sending love, Mónica. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care

          Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 28 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
