My son Luca has been accepted for treatment at Victoria Children's Hospital in Victoria, starting on Wednesday in October. We live 488 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 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Luca and me. We can contribute $140 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Luca will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

effort: 3–6 weeks
format: In person in Victoria
skills: a spare room near the hospital
