Bikash wants to stay at home - help fund eight months of care
Help Bikash stay in his own home with eight months of part-time care.
🇳🇵 Nepal1,189 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 94. After a heart attack Bikash can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Bikash desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Bikash worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $250 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $85
• Medication and prescriptions: $110
Thank you for reading my story.

Best of luck, Mina. Wishing Bikash a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Thinking of Kathmandu!
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Kathmandu.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Bikash?
shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Epe donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Epe.
How is Bikash doing now?
Thinking of you and your family, Mina. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Praying for you, Mina. Hope you get there. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
So sorry you're going through this, Mina. Get well soon. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 9 people at work. All the best.
