Going through lobectomy alone

Thank you so much. I am at Swedish Cancer Institute in Seattle. I know there is not a Hope Lodge unfortunately. There is indeed and Extended Stay America. They are not sure if they are participating yet. Unfortunately it's still a hotel room. That's fine. It has a kitchenette, etc. I'm just scared, I guess, to be alone and not have anyone to tell if I hurt.

hi @snorfish I live in Seattle. Fred Hutch has a subsidized lodging option for their patients with shuttle service to the clinics. And the Inn at Virginia Mason is attached to the Hospital in First Hill. Just in case you'd consider a different hospital... or you might feel more comfortable at the Inn at VM, knowing a hospital is right there.
