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

I'm caring for my mother, who's 87. After worsening Parkinson's disease Anna can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Anna desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Anna worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 5 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 $4,150 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $830 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $240 • Part-time carer (four months): $3,080 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
