Xiang 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 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together!
Wishing you peace, Xiang. Wishing Xiang a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless
Wishing Xiang a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
