Family housing near the Ottawa Cancer Centre: 6 weeks

A family from a rural district needs lodging in Ottawa while a child is treated.

My wife Zhi has been accepted for treatment at the Ottawa Cancer Centre in Ottawa, starting on Tuesday in October. We live 589 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Zhi and me. We can contribute $65 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Zhi will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
