[QUOTE="DDD, post: 441533, member: 35"] Just thought I would add another thought. I know that they have a Ronald McDonald house in Tampa but I "think" they have an adult house that is available to family members of those in treatment. I would assume you could call the cancer treatment center and ask them directly. When our easy child/difficult child had his unexpected brain surgery in Orlando the surgeon "recommended" us for an absolutely lovely home very near the hospital that was an awesome help to us. There was no need for travel to a hotel or for the total isolation of being alone in our fear and grief. If I recall there was a daily charge of under $50. We had a large room, security, internet access and a large kitchen that was open 24/7 for convenience of the guests. Truly it made it possible for us to feel connected, safe and "at home" with easy child/difficult child just a block or two away for easy walking access. I think it's worth checking into just in case father in law is an admit and his wife wants to be nearby. DDD [/QUOTE]
