Leandro needs a lift to the Belém Dialysis Unit - can you help one day a week?
A rota of drivers to the Belém Dialysis Unit would keep Leandro on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Leandro has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Belém Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Leandro 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 21 km each way.
Leandro 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Júlia. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Hope you get there. After 14 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Best of luck. Get well soon. Sent it to 14 people at work. God bless.
