My son Million has been accepted for treatment at the Jimma Cancer Centre in Jimma, starting on Wednesday in August. We live 233 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: Million and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Million will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Hobart.

    • Good luck, Tewodros. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

      • Thinking of you, Tewodros. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.

        • Thinking of you and your family. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
