My sister Isha has been accepted for treatment at the Mumbai Cancer Centre in Mumbai, starting on Wednesday in October. We live 434 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: Isha and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Isha 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.

  • wishing you the best, Purvi. Hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too

    • Best of luck, Purvi. Gave what I could, wish it was more

      • Hope this works out for you. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Mumbai.

        • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 22 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Mumbai

            Rooting for you. Wishing Isha a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings

            • Best of luck. Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings

              • Thanks for sharing this, Purvi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Agra.

                • Wishing Isha a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

                  • Rooting for you, Purvi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. All the best.

                    • Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.

                      • Thinking of you and your family, Purvi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
