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

After a stroke, I have been mostly housebound for 6 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Ikeja but we're thinking of you
Thinking of you and your family, Rey. This could happen to any of us. Blessings.
Good luck, Rey. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Get well soon. Sent it to 22 people at work
Take care, Rey. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
