Volunteer drivers wanted: Henrique's dialysis appointments

A rota of drivers to Rio de Janeiro Regional Medical Center would keep Henrique on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Henrique has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to Rio de Janeiro Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Henrique 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 35 km each way. Henrique 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. Thank you for reading my story.

  • Hope things get better soon. Wishing Henrique a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Wish I lived closer to Ahmedabad so I could bring a meal. All the best.
