After spinal surgery, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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 music, books and gardening, 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.

Wishing you peace, Suresh. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Ciudad de México donated after I showed her your page. God bless
best of luck, Suresh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Hang in there. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
You're not alone, Suresh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't give up. All the best.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Manila so I could bring a meal
