A family from a town in the north needs lodging in Eldoret while a child is treated.

My son Simiyu has been accepted for treatment at Eldoret Children's Hospital in Eldoret, starting on Monday in October. We live 398 km away in a town in the north, and hotel costs would use up what we have set aside for the treatment itself.
We're looking for a room, granny flat or short-term rental within about 30 minutes of the hospital, for 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Simiyu and me. We can contribute $25 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Simiyu will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Soweto.
Hang in there. Hope you get there. Thinking of Eldoret
Hang in there, Waweru. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Eldoret.
Thinking of you and your family. Wishing Simiyu a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Thanks for sharing this, Waweru. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best!
Sending love, Waweru. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Kolkata so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Eldoret.
Stay strong, Waweru. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Rotterdam

Hope it all works out, Waweru. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Good luck, Waweru. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Chiang Mai.
