My brother Emeka has been accepted for treatment at Epe Transplant Centre in Epe, starting on Thursday in November. We live 303 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 3 weeks. Two of us would stay: Emeka and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like. Emeka will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • Wishing Emeka a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.

    • Good luck. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to San Sebastián so I could bring a meal.

      • Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in St. Petersburg donated after I showed her your page

        • gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.

          • Hang in there. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.

            • Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

                  • keep going, Babatunde. Hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Leeds.

                        Keep going, Babatunde. Get well soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

                        • hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
