A weekly ride to the Amritsar Kidney Centre for Jigna

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

Jigna has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Amritsar Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Jigna 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 31 km each way. Jigna 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Rooting for you. Wishing Jigna a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 14 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

            So sorry you're going through this, Kirit. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Noida this morning. Take care.
