Sharon has been on dialysis for 4 years and until recently drove to the Arlington Dialysis Unit alone. After an eyesight problem, Sharon 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 9 km each way.
Sharon 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Swansea but we're thinking of you. Love from Swansea.
stay strong, Deborah. Wishing Sharon a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Jakarta.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Addis Ababa.
