Sophie is isolated after a long COVID relapse: a call a week would help
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a long COVID relapse, I have been mostly housebound for 8 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Tampa
Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Erie.
Praying for you, Sophie. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Red Deer
Wishing you peace, Sophie. Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Leeds.
Take care, Sophie. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
