Could you drive Rekha to Ludhiana General Hospital on Saturday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.

Rekha has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Ludhiana General Hospital alone. After a minor stroke, Rekha 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 26 km each way. Rekha 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
