Rides to dialysis three times a week for Andile in Sandton
Andile needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇿🇦 Sandton, Gauteng, South Africa320 views
Andile has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Sandton Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Andile 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 28 km each way.
Andile 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 29 people at work. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Stellenbosch so I could bring a meal
