Volunteer drivers wanted: Lerato's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Lerato to Johannesburg General Hospital on Monday? A rota of 4 drivers is forming.

Lerato has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Johannesburg General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Lerato 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 29 km each way.
Lerato 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.

Thanks for sharing this, Siyabonga. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Kingston!
