A room near Jeddah Children's Hospital for a family from a town in the north
Looking for a host or low-cost room within 30 minutes of Jeddah Children's Hospital.
🇸🇦 Jeddah, Makkah, Saudi Arabia1,534 views
My husband Imad has been accepted for treatment at Jeddah Children's Hospital in Jeddah, starting on Monday in November. We live 548 km away in a town in the north, 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Imad and me. We can contribute $45 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Imad 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.

- 3–6 weeks

It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Manila this morning.
Hang in there, Salim. Shared this with my family. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Jeddah.
Good luck, Salim. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
best of luck, Salim. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Sending love. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Best of luck, Salim. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Hope it all works out. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Jeddah.
Praying for you, Salim. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Joliet so I could bring a meal. God bless!
Rooting for you, Salim. Get well soon. All the best
