My mother Kemi has been accepted for treatment at the Ibadan Cancer Centre in Ibadan, starting on Tuesday in November. We live 333 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: Kemi and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Kemi will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
