I'm caring for my father, who's 80. After worsening Parkinson's disease Asif can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Asif desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Asif worked all of his 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 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 $650 goes: โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $45 โ€ข Part-time carer (six months): $590 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $15 With deep gratitude, Liton
