Volunteer drivers wanted: Vanessa's dialysis appointments
Could you drive Vanessa to the Pelotas Kidney Centre on Sunday? A rota of 3 drivers is forming.

Vanessa has been on dialysis for 5 years and until recently drove to the Pelotas Kidney Centre alone. After a foot amputation, Vanessa 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 35 km each way.
Vanessa 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.
Thank you so much.

Best of luck. Wishing Vanessa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
