My husband Tharindu has been accepted for treatment at Colombo Children's Hospital in Colombo, starting on Friday in November. We live 345 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: Tharindu and me. We can contribute $30 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Tharindu will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Thank you for reading my story.

You're not alone. Wishing Tharindu a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Mombasa.
Thinking of you and your family, Nalin. Wishing Tharindu a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
