Rides to dialysis three times a week for Cristiane in Belo Horizonte

A rota of drivers to the Belo Horizonte Kidney Centre would keep Cristiane on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Cristiane has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Belo Horizonte Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Cristiane 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 20 km each way. Cristiane 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
