Achieng wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care

I'm caring for my mother, who's 84. After a diagnosis of dementia Achieng can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Achieng desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Achieng worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $700 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75 • Part-time carer (four months): $555 Glad we found this place. - Imani
