Hosting wanted: Olumide travelling with Godwin to Badagry for treatment
A family from a town in the north needs lodging in Badagry while a child is treated.
🇳🇬 Badagry, Lagos, Nigeria966 views
My son Godwin has been accepted for treatment at the Badagry Cancer Centre in Badagry, starting on Thursday in February. We live 425 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: Godwin and me. We can contribute $20 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Godwin 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.
