A place to stay near Port Harcourt Children's Hospital while Mercy receives treatment
Mercy is coming to Port Harcourt Children's Hospital for 3 weeks of treatment and the family needs somewhere affordable to stay.
🇳🇬 Port Harcourt, Rivers, Nigeria1,616 views
My wife Mercy has been accepted for treatment at Port Harcourt Children's Hospital in Port Harcourt, starting on Monday in October. We live 167 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: Mercy and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Mercy will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
