Family housing near the Likoni Cancer Centre: 4 weeks
A family from a rural district needs lodging in Likoni while a child is treated.
🇰🇪 Likoni, Mombasa, Kenya226 views
My daughter Jepkoech has been accepted for treatment at the Likoni Cancer Centre in Likoni, starting on Monday in October. We live 177 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 4 weeks. Two of us would stay: Jepkoech and me. We can contribute $10 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Jepkoech will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

- 3–6 weeks

Best of luck, Caroline. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Likoni.
Hang in there, Caroline. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
sending good thoughts. Looking forward to the next update. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
