My mother Eimear has been accepted for treatment at Cork Children's Hospital in Cork, starting on Saturday in February. We live 258 km away in a town in the north, 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: Eimear and me. We can contribute $105 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Eimear will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Thanks for being kind about this.

          Thinking of you, Declan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

          • praying for you, Declan. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours.

            • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Madrid.

              • Hope it all works out, Declan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 24 people at work.

                • Thinking of you. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
