Rides to dialysis three times a week for Jasmine in Half-Way Tree
Could you drive Jasmine to the Half-Way Tree Kidney Centre on Sunday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.
🇯🇲 Half-Way Tree, Saint Andrew, Jamaica742 views
Jasmine has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Half-Way Tree Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Jasmine 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 27 km each way.
Jasmine 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.

Hang in there, Patrick. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Saint-Denis so I could bring a meal. Love from San Antonio.
Hope you get there. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Half-Way Tree.
Sending strength, Patrick. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Praying for you. Wishing Jasmine a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
