My brother Bongani has been accepted for treatment at the Ekurhuleni Cancer Centre in Ekurhuleni, starting on Friday in May. We live 349 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 5 weeks. Two of us would stay: Bongani and me. We can contribute $35 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Bongani will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • Praying for you, Megan. Hope you get there. Greetings from Accra.

    • Hope it all works out. Hope this works out for you. Love from Rawalpindi.

      • Your post was clear and honest. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Cairo.

        • Rooting for you, Megan. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Santos

          • It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Ekurhuleni.
