A weekly ride to the Durham Kidney Centre for Roman
Roman needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Roman has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Durham Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Roman 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 21 km each way.
Roman 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. Sent it to 35 people at work. Blessings.
praying for you, Leo. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We're a small family in Hialeah but we're thinking of you.
