Rides to dialysis three times a week for Şule in Gaziantep

A rota of drivers to the Gaziantep Kidney Centre would keep Şule on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Şule has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Gaziantep Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Şule 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 25 km each way. Şule 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. Thank you for reading my story.

    Praying for you, Arda. This could happen to any of us. All the best!

    • Rooting for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Gaziantep!

        • Wishing you peace, Arda. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
