My wife Palesa has been accepted for treatment at the George Cancer Centre in George, starting on Monday in May. We live 407 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 6 weeks. Two of us would stay: Palesa and me. We can contribute $40 a week and cook for the household if you'd like.
Palesa will have some immune precautions, so a clean, smoke-free place would be ideal. A kitchen is a bonus. Thank you.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 3–6 weeks
- format
- In person in George
- skills
- a spare room near the hospital

Thanks for sharing this, Vikash. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Cologne this morning. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this, Vikash. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Vikash. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.
Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
You're not alone. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
hope things get better soon, Vikash. Wishing Palesa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Love from Springfield
hope this works out for you. After 28 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending love, Vikash. Wishing Palesa a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Wishing you the best. Hope the doctors have good news. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Hope things get better soon, Vikash. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.

Sending good thoughts. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Love from Edinburgh.
