Volunteer drivers wanted: Yoko's dialysis appointments

Yoko needs dialysis three times a week and has lost the ability to drive; volunteer drivers can each take one day.

Yoko has been on dialysis for 1 years and until recently drove to the Kawasaki Dialysis Unit alone. After surgery on their hand, Yoko 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 16 km each way. Yoko 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Sending strength. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings!
