Mwende is isolated after chemotherapy: a call a week would help
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After chemotherapy, 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Valencia.
Thinking of you and your family, Mwende. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Sydney so I could bring a meal. Love from Riverside.
Praying for you, Mwende. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
