A room near Johannesburg University Hospital for a family from a village four hours away
Looking for a host or low-cost room within 30 minutes of Johannesburg University Hospital.

My daughter Shireen has been accepted for treatment at Johannesburg University Hospital in Johannesburg, starting on Wednesday in November. We live 313 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: Shireen and me. We can contribute $45 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Shireen will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Buenos Aires this morning. All the best.
You're not alone. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Keep going, Nomsa. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
