Rides to dialysis three times a week for Umesh in Nashik
A rota of drivers to the Nashik Kidney Centre would keep Umesh on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India923 views
Umesh has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Nashik Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Umesh 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 22 km each way.
Umesh 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
- effort
- one weekly trip
- format

Hope things get better soon. 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. All the best

Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Rome so I could bring a meal.
Good luck, Swapna. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
