Makati
My son Manuel has been accepted for treatment at the Makati Cancer Centre in Makati, starting on Saturday in September. We live 506 km away in a rural district, 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: Manuel and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Manuel will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Thank you so much.
