Could you drive Naveen to the Thane Dialysis Unit on Thursday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Naveen has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Thane Dialysis Unit alone. After a foot amputation, Naveen 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 14 km each way. Naveen 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

          Sending good thoughts. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

            Stay strong, Vasanthi. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Thane.
