My wife Cristina has been accepted for treatment at Milan University Hospital in Milan, starting on Monday in December. We live 462 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: Cristina and me. We can contribute $90 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Cristina will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
