Could you drive Parker to Ottawa Regional Medical Center on Sunday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Parker has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Ottawa Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Parker 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 29 km each way. Parker 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. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
