Lena has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Hannover Regional Medical Center alone. After surgery on their hand, Lena 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 30 km each way. Lena 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 16 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

      Best of luck, Patrick. This could happen to any of us.

      • Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

          Hope it all works out, Patrick. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too!

            Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Saint-Denis.
