Kshitija needs a lift to the Mumbai Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?

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

Kshitija has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Mumbai Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Kshitija 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 29 km each way. Kshitija 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • Hope it all works out, Janhavi. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

        Your post was clear and honest. After 26 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Mumbai

        • thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.

          • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Medellín.

            • Thinking of you and your family. Wishing Kshitija a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't give up. Love from Córdoba.
