Volunteer drivers wanted: Tharun's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Tharun to the Mangaluru Kidney Centre on Tuesday? A rota of 6 drivers is forming.

Tharun has been on dialysis for 2 years and until recently drove to the Mangaluru Kidney Centre alone. After an eyesight problem, Tharun 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 26 km each way.
Tharun 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.

keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 15 people at work. Love from Tel Aviv.
So sorry you're going through this, Pavithra. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. All the best
Praying for you, Pavithra. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
