Theodore is isolated after spinal surgery: a call a week would help
Theodore is housebound after spinal surgery and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

After spinal surgery, 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 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.
Thank you so much.

Rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. Greetings from London
Best of luck, Theodore. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Good luck, Theodore. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
Praying for you, Theodore. Get well soon. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family, Theodore. Wishing Theodore a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Asaba.
