Help Tamber Isolate Away From Home

Donation protected

Despite Tamber Grable's health issues - cystic fibrosis and being immunocompromised are just two of her "majors;" there are lots more - she has (mostly) hung on to her positive outlook on life.  She also helps others whenever and however she can.  She subsists on SSDI, SSI, and lives with her fiance' and his family.  

Well, now Tamber needs help.  She was diagnosed with asymptomatic (so far) covid a couple days ago.  Despite her daily breathing difficulties with CF, the hospital turned her loose from the ER and the doctor told her to stay in a hotel for the duration of her quarantine because her household includes other vulnerable people.  Everyone split up and spent a night in various hotels (while the house was getting SUPER sanitized.) As people have tested negative they've been filtering back in, but Tamber cannot return for another week or more.  Her fiance has his testing appointment tomorrow; then we'll know if she has to quarantine alone.

Tamber's first two days at the hotel were covered by someone in the family, that turned out to be s loan that has to be repaid.  None of us has the cash to extend her stay for another eight days, nor does anyone have a good way to isolate her at home - the house is not large, and nobody wants to risk getting infected in close quarters.  In addition, there are other medically vulnerable people in the home as well as here
Should her fiance' test positive...at least they'll be together, but since she did expose everyone all who work outside the home are also stuck for more than another week.

Tamber needs help to stay quarantined until her contagious time has passed.  While there are some inexpensive hotels in the area, the local hospitality tax causes the rates to nearly double.  What she really needs is a ONE place to stay for the duration - fortunately her home health nurse will visit a hotel - and possibly help toward meals.  She's had a couple people drop food off outside the door, but that's really not sustainable.  We're not talking room service, but using Doordash would be a good sometimes option (with her cystic fibrosis she eats very little and needs to eat MORE!)

Tamber tries hard not to ask for anything besides now-very-rare trips to see her specialists.  I'm asking for help on her behalf because we as her parents can't offer a place because I also have a compromised immune system.

Please consider tossing her a bit of a lifeline - ANY amount toward helping her would be welcome and you have many, many thanks in advance.
