My father Kevin has been accepted for treatment at Johannesburg Transplant Centre in Johannesburg, starting on Saturday in January. We live 438 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 5 weeks. Two of us would stay: Kevin and me. We can contribute $25 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Kevin will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    keep going, Ayanda. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.

    • Hope things get better soon, Ayanda. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Johannesburg.

      • You're not alone. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

        • Rooting for you, Ayanda. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.

          • Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Winston-Salem so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Johannesburg.

            • thanks for sharing this, Ayanda. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home

              • Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Johannesburg.
