Quentin has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to Boulogne-Billancourt General Hospital alone. After a foot amputation, Quentin 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 24 km each way. Quentin 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

        keep going, Maëlle. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Fort Worth

          Good luck, Maëlle. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

            Keep going, Maëlle. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Jabalpur donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
