Could you drive İbrahim to the Istanbul Dialysis Unit on Friday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.

İbrahim has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Istanbul Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, İbrahim 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. İbrahim 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

        Wishing İbrahim a smooth procedure and a full recovery

        • Hang in there, Hatice. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!

          • Hope it all works out, Hatice. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Brasília but we're thinking of you.

                    • Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Kumasi.

                      • praying for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.

                        • take care, Hatice. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

                          • Praying for you, Hatice. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. God bless.
