Rides to dialysis three times a week for Gonzalo in Buenos Aires
A rota of drivers to the Buenos Aires Kidney Centre would keep Gonzalo on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇦🇷 Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina436 views
Gonzalo has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Buenos Aires Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Gonzalo 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 25 km each way.
Gonzalo 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.

Take care. Wishing Gonzalo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We're a small family in Rohini but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Yolanda. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family, Yolanda. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Yolanda. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side
