Pradeep is isolated after a stroke: a call a week would help
Pradeep is housebound after a stroke and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After a stroke, I have been mostly housebound for 3 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 30 minutes a week

thinking of you, Pradeep. Wishing Pradeep a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Hubballi.
Rooting for you, Pradeep. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Thanks for sharing this, Pradeep. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Saket
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Jalandhar.
