Just wanted to post the link for the Hope Lodge locations throughout the United States. We were quite thankful to find out about the Hope Lodge prior to treatment since we had been commuting 3 hours each way. It was wonderful staying there throughout treatment and being able to stay there when we are back for follow-up appts which have been involving 2-3 days each month. We were provided with a very nice room and there were 6 fully equipped kitchens to use. We met a lot of wonderful people that work there and also made friends with a lot of the other residents.
