Help us stay with mom!

A few days ago we found out that Moms throat cancer is incurable. The only thing that can prolong her life at the moment is a massive surgery which will include an incision from her ear to her throat. They will be removing part of her esophagus and tongue, as well as some of her vocal chords, while doing a skin graph on her arm to replace on her tongue. In hopes to give her a little bit more time. In this time frame she will be on a feeding tube, and have a tracheotomy in place to help her breathe.
She has a 50% chance of survival. 

Being almost 5 month pregnant all I hope for is a successful surgery so that she can meet her grandchild in December.
Her surgery is on July 31st, and she will be spending weeks in the hospital at Vancouver General Hospital.  I have spent the last few days reaching out to different organizations for help and accommodation for our family to be close together while she undergo's this difficult time. I have received 3 days of help (August 3-5) at the Jean C Barber Lodge for my father and myself at the rate of $120/night. The rest of the time will be spent in hotel rooms.  The cheapest, closest hotel with a medical rate is $190 night from August 6 - 12. Which has been booked as they only had one room left.
For the days of July 30- Aug 3rd thank you to the Lions Club Easter Seals house, they have space at $95 night!

I am reaching out to you for some financial support to make it possible that we can be as close as possible during the first weeks as there is a high chance of complications and to be in Chilliwack and Sechelt,  just will not do.

Every little bit helps.
I am not one to ask many people for help, and this is extremely hard for me, but this is my last resort..
Big thank you to Jason V for the suggestion of doing this, I never would've thought it would be an option.
