Anaïs needs a lift to Ottawa Regional Medical Center - can you help one day a week?
Anaïs needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Anaïs has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Ottawa Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Anaïs 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 30 km each way.
Anaïs 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.

- one weekly trip
- format

Wishing you peace, Brigitte. Wishing Anaïs a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Mecca.
Hope things get better soon, Brigitte. Hope this works out for you. Love from San Diego
Sending love, Brigitte. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Take care.
