My wife Erica has been accepted for treatment at Hobart University Hospital in Hobart, starting on Sunday in July. We live 307 km away in a village four hours away, 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 3 weeks. Two of us would stay: Erica and me. We can contribute $125 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Erica will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Glad we found this place.
