A weekly ride to Caloocan General Hospital for Patricia

Patricia needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Patricia has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Caloocan General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Patricia 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 16 km each way. Patricia 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

    Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
