Volunteer drivers wanted: Gonzalo's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Gonzalo to Rochester Regional Medical Center on Saturday? A rota of 5 drivers is forming.

Gonzalo has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to Rochester Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Gonzalo 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.
Gonzalo 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this, Rosa. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in San Jose but we're thinking of you
