A weekly ride to the Prayagraj Dialysis Unit for Dhruv
A rota of drivers to the Prayagraj Dialysis Unit would keep Dhruv on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Dhruv has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Prayagraj Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Dhruv 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 23 km each way.
Dhruv 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Springfield.
Rooting for you. Get well soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best!
Hang in there. Get well soon. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Prayagraj
Wishing you peace, Tejal. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
Thanks for sharing this, Tejal. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
good luck, Tejal. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Jeddah this morning.
Praying for you, Tejal. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Tejal. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings
thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. After 30 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care!
Sending strength, Tejal. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Kyiv
Sending strength, Tejal. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Prayagraj.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
Sending strength, Tejal. Your post was clear and honest
