Family housing near Pittsburgh Transplant Centre: 4 weeks

A family from a town in the north needs lodging in Pittsburgh while a child is treated.

Pittsburgh
My father Andrés has been accepted for treatment at Pittsburgh Transplant Centre in Pittsburgh, starting on Friday in September. We live 315 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: Andrés and me. We can contribute $90 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Andrés will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      Keep going, Karina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

        Wishing you the best, Karina. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Hamilton.

          Take care. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Shubra so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Pittsburgh.
