My father Ahmed has been accepted for treatment at Johannesburg University Hospital in Johannesburg, starting on Friday in November. We live 156 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Ahmed and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Ahmed 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.
