Rides to dialysis three times a week for Shawn in Houston
Could you drive Shawn to the Houston Kidney Centre on Thursday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.
🇺🇸 Houston, Texas, United States923 views
Shawn has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Houston Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Shawn 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 15 km each way.
Shawn 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Stay strong, Walker. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless
Sending love. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Toronto this morning.
Sending good thoughts, Walker. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Houston.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Bangkok
