Could you drive Gayathri to Durgapur Regional Medical Center on Tuesday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Durgapur
Gayathri has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Durgapur Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Gayathri 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 8 km each way. Gayathri 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.

    Wishing you the best, Nandini. Shared it with a few friends. Don't give up. Blessings

      hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 27 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings.

      • Lauren Walker

        So sorry you're going through this, Nandini. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Ikeja.

          stay strong, Nandini. Wishing Gayathri a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Durgapur.

            Sending strength. This could happen to any of us. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

            • Randall S. Randolph

              Thinking of you, Nandini. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings

                Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Düsseldorf this morning.

                  Take care. Hope the doctors have good news. My husband and I read this together
