I'm caring for my father, who's 96. After a heart attack Amit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Amit 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.
Amit worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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 $700 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75
• Part-time carer (three months): $540
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $85
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 23 people at work. All the best.
Wishing Amit a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings!
keep going, Manoj. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Mumbai.
hope it all works out, Manoj. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
