I'm caring for my father, who's 83. After a heart attack Ajay can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ajay desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Ajay worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $1,000 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $730 • Medication and prescriptions: $110 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $30 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $130 With deep gratitude, Rohan
