Rima has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Cairo Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Rima 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 3 hours, including the trip there and back; most volunteers take one regular day. The journey is about 29 km each way.
Rima 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.
I hope life is good to you.

best of luck, Ziad. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Mangaluru.
Good luck, Ziad. Hope the doctors have good news.
good luck, Ziad. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Cairo
hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Cairo.
