Volunteer drivers wanted: Carter's dialysis appointments

A rota of drivers to the Fresno Dialysis Unit would keep Carter on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Carter has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Fresno Dialysis Unit alone. After a minor stroke, Carter 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 9 km each way. Carter 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.

  • rooting for you, Maria. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless

    • So sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Takoradi.

      • Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

          Thinking of you and your family, Maria. Shared this with my family. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Fresno.
