Hosting wanted: Sipho F travelling with Olivia to Sandton for treatment
A family from a rural district needs lodging in Sandton while a child is treated.
🇿🇦 2199, Sandton, Gauteng, South Africa94 views
My daughter Olivia has been accepted for treatment at the Sandton Cancer Centre in Sandton, starting on Sunday in April. We live 157 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 3 weeks. Two of us would stay: Olivia and me. We can contribute $15 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Olivia will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending good thoughts, Sipho F. Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Brampton.
Good luck, Sipho F. Wishing Olivia a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from New Delhi.
Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Sandton.
Sending strength. Hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Yokohama.
