A weekly ride to Amsterdam General Hospital for Daan

A rota of drivers to Amsterdam General Hospital would keep Daan on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Daan has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Amsterdam General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Daan can no longer drive. Taxis cost more than the family can pay three times a week. We're building a rota of volunteer drivers. Each session is 4 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 15 km each way. Daan is cheerful company. You'd need a car in good condition and a clean driving record. We'll cover your fuel costs, and the family will send you home with homemade food. Please say which day works for you in the comments. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
