Hoàng needs a lift to Syracuse General Hospital - can you help one day a week?

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

Hoàng has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Syracuse General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Hoàng 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 34 km each way. Hoàng 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. I hope life is good to you.

          this could happen to any of us. After 27 years in accounting I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
