Could you drive Kateryna to Kyiv General Hospital on Sunday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Kateryna has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Kyiv General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Kateryna 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 15 km each way. Kateryna 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

  • So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.

    • So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.

      • Your post was clear and honest. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best!

        • Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Seattle this morning. All the best.

          • Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

            • You're not alone, Roman. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.

              • Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.

                  thinking of you and your family, Roman. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.

                  • hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Madrid

                    • Hope it all works out, Roman. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together

                      • take care. Hope you get there. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

                        • Sending strength, Roman. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
