Rides to dialysis three times a week for Laura in Houston
A rota of drivers to Houston General Hospital would keep Laura on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇺🇸 Houston, Texas, United States1,303 views
Laura has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Houston General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Laura 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 31 km each way.
Laura 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
- effort
- one weekly trip
