Volunteer drivers wanted: Jorge's dialysis appointments

Jorge needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Jorge has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to the San Sebastián Kidney Centre alone. After surgery on their hand, Jorge 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. Jorge 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.

              Sending good thoughts, Claudia. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
