Volunteer drivers wanted: Anong's dialysis appointments

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

Anong has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Phuket Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Anong 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. Anong 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.

      Wishing you peace, Malee. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Los Angeles.
