Rides to dialysis three times a week for Katherine in Ottawa
Could you drive Katherine to Ottawa General Hospital on Tuesday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Katherine has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Ottawa General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Katherine 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 13 km each way.
Katherine 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.
Thank you so much.

Stay strong, Jack. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Cluj-Napoca.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. I hope April is when things finally get easier. All the best.
hope it all works out, Jack. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 16 people at work. God bless
hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
