My wife Yamuna has been accepted for treatment at Kolkata Children's Hospital in Kolkata, starting on Thursday in August. We live 434 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: Yamuna and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Yamuna will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • stay strong, Harini. Hope the doctors have good news. God bless.

    • Take care, Harini. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

      • Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal.

        • Good luck, Harini. Gave what I could, wish it was more

          • Keep going. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Thane

              rooting for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Flint donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Kolkata.

              • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Kolkata.

                  take care. 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.

                  • Wishing you peace, Harini. Wishing Yamuna a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Iztapalapa.
