Asif wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Asif can't afford the care He needs after worsening Parkinson's disease; we're asking for $650.

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:
โข Medication and prescriptions: $45
โข Part-time carer (six months): $590
โข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $15
With deep gratitude,
Liton

thinking of you, Liton. Shared it with a few friends. After 14 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Sending love, Liton. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
