Shilpa 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 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 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.

Hope things get better soon, Shilpa. Wishing Shilpa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Cần Thơ but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Brooklyn.
