Family housing near Kolkata University Hospital: 5 weeks
A family from a rural district needs lodging in Kolkata while a child is treated.
🇮🇳 Kolkata, West Bengal, India1,141 views
My sister Kshitija has been accepted for treatment at Kolkata University Hospital in Kolkata, starting on Sunday in November. We live 404 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: Kshitija and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Kshitija will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Glad we found this place.

This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Kolkata.
Hope it all works out, Isha. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
so sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Newcastle so I could bring a meal.
rooting for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. God bless.
