I'm caring for my mother, who's 92. After a fall and hip fracture Amira can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Amira desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Amira worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 3 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $900 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $760
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95
• Medication and prescriptions: $45
Glad we found this place.

So sorry you're going through this, Ibrahim. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Shubra.
