A family from a village four hours away needs lodging in Ottawa while a child is treated.

My wife Dan has been accepted for treatment at the Ottawa Cancer Centre in Ottawa, starting on Wednesday in October. We live 533 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: Dan and me. We can contribute $80 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Dan 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.

shared this with my family. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Ottawa.
Take care. Shared this with my family. Love from Kasarani.
