Could you drive Malak to Heliopolis Regional Medical Center on Thursday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Malak has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Heliopolis Regional Medical Center alone. After an eyesight problem, Malak 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. Malak 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

                              Stay strong, Ali. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Heliopolis.
