Bernd needs a lift to Nuremberg Regional Medical Center - can you help one day a week?

A rota of drivers to Nuremberg Regional Medical Center would keep Bernd on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Bernd has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Nuremberg Regional Medical Center alone. After a minor stroke, Bernd 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. Bernd 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.

          • Hope it all works out, Oskar. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
