A place to stay near Lagos University Hospital while Yakubu receives treatment
A family from a village four hours away needs lodging in Lagos while a child is treated.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria386 views
My son Yakubu has been accepted for treatment at Lagos University Hospital in Lagos, starting on Wednesday in November. We live 260 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Yakubu and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Yakubu will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Good luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Oaxaca de Juárez.
