Leah needs a lift to Springfield Regional Medical Center - can you help one day a week?

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

Leah has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Springfield Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Leah 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 11 km each way. Leah 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. Glad we found this place.

    Hope it all works out, Naomi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Fresno.
