Rides to dialysis three times a week for Aparecida in São Paulo
Could you drive Aparecida to São Paulo General Hospital on Saturday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Aparecida has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to São Paulo General Hospital alone. After surgery on their hand, Aparecida 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 24 km each way.
Aparecida 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.

thinking of you and your family, Caio. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
sending good thoughts, Caio. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Tallahassee.
Take care. Wishing Aparecida a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Pokhara
Wishing you the best, Caio. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of São Paulo.
