Rides to dialysis three times a week for Vladimir in Novosibirsk

Could you drive Vladimir to the Novosibirsk Kidney Centre on Thursday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.

Vladimir has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Novosibirsk Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Vladimir 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 28 km each way. Vladimir 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

          I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Depok.
