Rides to dialysis three times a week for Maya in Kathmandu
Maya needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.
🇳🇵 Kathmandu, Bagmati, Nepal690 views
Maya has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Kathmandu Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Maya 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 9 km each way.
Maya 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.

hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Hubballi
Wishing you the best, Pramila. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Kathmandu.
You're not alone. Get well soon. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Best of luck, Pramila. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Zagazig.
