Ariana wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Help Ariana stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.

I'm caring for me, who's 85. After a diagnosis of dementia Ariana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ariana 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.
Ariana worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six 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 $4,650 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $510
• Part-time carer (six months): $3,850
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $290
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Los Angeles.
Wishing you the best, Ariana. Shared this with my family. God bless.
Thinking of you, Ariana. Hope this works out for you
