Bed and Breakfast for People with Chronic Illness or Disabilities
Dear Friends:
I am writing to let you know of two special Bed and Breakfast programs
for families living with a chronic illness or disability.
1) Patchwork Quilt Bed 'n Breakfast is a unique form of
hospitality to families. It is for anyone but will be especially welcome
to families
feeling stressed, whether from caregiving or another source, bringing a
child to the city to receive services such as inpatient or outpatient
hospital care, experiencing social isolation or just seeking rest,
recreation and good food (cooked by someone else!).
The accommodation is warm and friendly setting in central Vancouver
close to major bus routes and hospitals. The fee of $39 per night for a
couple includes a private bedroom with linens and towels and a hearty,
healthy breakfast. (The cost is $20 for one parent.) The bathroom
includes a full bathtub and shower and is shared with other guests. Your
child's bed and breakfast costs $10 per night.
A special feature of this program is the offer of an individualized
crafts and play session with the child or teenager, enabling the
parent(s) to sleep in, to take a long bath, to spend time alone or
together or to just unwind over a delicious breakfast of wholesome,
home-made foods. This service is for any family of a child (0-15 years
of age). Youth over 19 are also welcome to participate. Please note that
parents must remain on the premises at all times.
2) Morning Glory Bed 'n Breakfast is a special low-cost option to
adults living with a chronic illness or fatiguing disability.
It is provided to ANYONE with a chronic illness or disability but will
be especially welcome to people who are experiencing social isolation,
need somewhere to stay while having a holiday or who are visiting the
city to attend an inpatient or outpatient service.
You will have a large, private and beautifully decorated bedroom with a
brand new double bed, sheets and towels. The very clean bathroom has a
full bathtub and shower. The rate is $20 per night per person includes a
healthy breakfast of coffees, teas, juices, breads and muffins, ham,
eggs and fresh fruit.
