My son Joaquín has been accepted for treatment at the Mar del Plata Cancer Centre in Mar del Plata, starting on Thursday in May. We live 501 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: Joaquín and me. We can contribute $35 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Joaquín 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.

  • Good luck, Renata. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in New Delhi this morning. All the best.

    • shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Mbale.

      • So sorry you're going through this, Renata. Hope the doctors have good news. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Mar del Plata

        • Stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Mar del Plata.
