A room near Kilkenny University Hospital for a family from a village four hours away

Saoirse is coming to Kilkenny University Hospital for 3 weeks of treatment and the family needs somewhere affordable to stay.

My sister Saoirse has been accepted for treatment at Kilkenny University Hospital in Kilkenny, starting on Thursday in August. We live 264 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 3 weeks. Two of us would stay: Saoirse and me. We can contribute $150 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Saoirse 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.
