The host family will be home for Christmas spending Christmas with some of her family members and then will be traveling to Oregon to spend time with her other family members. Respite care is not needed.
I spoke with Cristina earlier this week and she said she would take uber to the airport.
If they wish for us to assist her in scheduling a shuttle, I will be more than happy to help Cristina schedule this. I will teach her how to arrange this so she will know how to do this on her own the next time she plans to schedule travel during the school year. Please let the natural mother know that the cost of the shuttle will be of the students cost.
I would also like to mention that the host mom would like to hire professional maid service to deep clean Cristina's bathroom and bedroom while she is away during Christmas break. The host mom says the bathroom and bedroom are starting to have a smell to it and mildew is forming in the bathroom. The cost of this maid service is $220. The host mom is asking if Cristina can pay for this cost before she leaves on Christmas break.
Thank you for your help in this matter. It is greatly appreciated.
