Could you drive Aster to Bahir Dar General Hospital on Thursday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Bahir Dar
Aster has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Bahir Dar General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Aster 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 20 km each way. Aster 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.

      Wishing you the best, Solomon. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!

      • Take care, Solomon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 24 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

        • good luck, Solomon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

          • Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Bahir Dar.
