My husband Kipchoge has been accepted for treatment at the Machakos Cancer Centre in Machakos, starting on Saturday in June. We live 302 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 5 weeks. Two of us would stay: Kipchoge and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Kipchoge will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.

good luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Springfield this morning.
Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. Love from Gondar
Praying for you, Odhiambo. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Machakos.
Take care. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Machakos.
