Jocelyn needs a lift to Quezon City General Hospital - can you help one day a week?
Jocelyn needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines1,228 views
Jocelyn has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Quezon City General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Jocelyn 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 34 km each way.
Jocelyn 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.

Thinking of you and your family, Ryan. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Keep going, Ryan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
Praying for you, Ryan. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
Hope it all works out, Ryan. Shared it with a few friends. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
Sending good thoughts, Ryan. Shared this with my family. Don't give up. Love from Seongnam.
Keep going, Ryan. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
Good luck, Ryan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending good thoughts, Ryan. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Quezon City

Praying for you, Ryan. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Bogor so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Hang in there, Ryan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
You're not alone. Hope this works out for you. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
