Julian has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to New York General Hospital alone. After an eyesight problem, Julian 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 30 km each way.
Julian 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.

Hang in there, Douglas. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of New York.
Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Nîmes.
Wishing you peace. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of New York.
Keep going, Douglas. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Greetings from Caruaru
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
