Volunteer drivers wanted: Donal's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Donal to the Limerick Dialysis Unit on Saturday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.
🇮🇪 Limerick, Munster, Ireland255 views
Donal has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the Limerick Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Donal 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 19 km each way.
Donal 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.

- one weekly trip

Praying for you, Nora. Hope the doctors have good news. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope things get better soon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Burnaby.
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Makati
Praying for you, Nora. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 25 years in teaching I know how hard it is to ask for anything
Thanks for sharing this, Nora. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Derry.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in New Delhi but we're thinking of you. God bless.
