A room near the Chicago Cancer Centre for a family from a village four hours away

A family from a village four hours away needs lodging in Chicago while a child is treated.

My mother Cynthia has been accepted for treatment at the Chicago Cancer Centre in Chicago, starting on Wednesday in September. We live 221 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 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Cynthia and me. We can contribute $100 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Cynthia will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Thank you so much.
