I'm caring for my mother, who's 74. After a fall and hip fracture Aarti can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Aarti desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Aarti worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $750 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $540 • Medication and prescriptions: $100 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $35 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Ramesh

      wishing you peace, Ramesh. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to St. Louis so I could bring a meal.
