Ignacio has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to Veracruz General Hospital alone. After a minor stroke, Ignacio 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 17 km each way.
Ignacio 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Keep going, Consuelo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Keep going, Consuelo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
