Rides to dialysis three times a week for Joshua in Hobart
A rota of drivers to Hobart Regional Medical Center would keep Joshua on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇦🇺 Hobart, Tasmania, Australia320 views
Joshua has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Hobart Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Joshua 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 9 km each way.
Joshua 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.
Glad we found this place.

Take care, Natalia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Cali
wishing Joshua a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update.
