Fabiana needs a lift to Rio de Janeiro General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

Fabiana needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Fabiana has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Rio de Janeiro General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Fabiana 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 9 km each way. Fabiana 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 so much.

  • Stay strong, Renata. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings

    • Take care, Renata. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend

      • take care, Renata. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together

        • Sending good thoughts. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 30 people at work. God bless.

          • Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Bakersfield.
