Roman needs a lift to the Rochester Kidney Centre - can you help one day a week?
Roman needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Roman has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Rochester Kidney Centre alone. After a minor stroke, Roman 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.
Roman 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 so much.

Good luck, Naomi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope July is when things finally get easier.
You're not alone, Naomi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Keep going, Naomi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
