A room near the Laredo Cancer Centre for a family from a rural district
A family from a rural district needs lodging in Laredo while a child is treated.

My son Travis has been accepted for treatment at the Laredo Cancer Centre in Laredo, starting on Tuesday in August. We live 181 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Travis and me. We can contribute $150 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Travis will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 3–6 weeks
- format
- In person in Laredo
- skills
- a spare room near the hospital

Stay strong, Valentina. Get well soon. We're a small family in Kadıköy but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Valentina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Laredo
Take care. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Paris.
Thanks for sharing this, Valentina. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Sending strength. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Los Angeles
