A weekly ride to Setagaya Regional Medical Center for Yumi
A rota of drivers to Setagaya Regional Medical Center would keep Yumi on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇯🇵 Setagaya, Tokyo, Japan609 views
Yumi has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Setagaya Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Yumi 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 22 km each way.
Yumi 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.

Praying for you, Megumi. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Nijmegen donated after I showed her your page.
