Rides to dialysis three times a week for Irma in Jakarta
A rota of drivers to the Jakarta Kidney Centre would keep Irma on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Irma has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Jakarta Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Irma 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 23 km each way.
Irma 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.

Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in C贸rdoba this morning. Greetings from C贸rdoba
Hang in there. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Sent it to 18 people at work.
Thanks for sharing this, Citra. This could happen to any of us.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Jakarta.
wishing you peace, Citra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Hope things get better soon, Citra. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
keep going. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
