Volunteer drivers wanted: Revathi's dialysis appointments

A rota of drivers to Pune Regional Medical Center would keep Revathi on treatment. Even one trip a week helps.

Revathi has been on dialysis for 3 years and until recently drove to Pune Regional Medical Center alone. After a foot amputation, Revathi 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 22 km each way. Revathi 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.

    Best of luck. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

    • Samuel Obinna Olawale

      I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 26 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

        Stay strong, Parvathi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Poitiers but we're thinking of you. Take care

        • Jameson B. Bates

          It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
