Themba is isolated after a broken pelvis: a call a week would help
A volunteer who can phone or video-call Themba once a week for the next few months.

After a broken pelvis, I have been mostly housebound for 10 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 history, chess and quiz shows, 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
Stay strong. Wishing Themba a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
