My daughter Nora has been accepted for treatment at the Belfast Cancer Centre in Belfast, starting on Thursday in December. We live 411 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 5 weeks. Two of us would stay: Nora and me. We can contribute $50 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Nora will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. I hope life is good to you.
