Volunteer drivers wanted: Cristiane's dialysis appointments
A rota of drivers to Santos Regional Medical Center would keep Cristiane on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Cristiane has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Santos Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Cristiane 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 12 km each way.
Cristiane 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.
- effort
- one weekly trip

hope things get better soon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Rooting for you, Eliane. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal. Take care.
hang in there. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
