Help Brandon stay in his own home with eight months of part-time care.

I'm caring for me, who's 77. After a stroke last August Brandon can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Brandon desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Brandon worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 2 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $5,700 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $4,400
• Medication and prescriptions: $650
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $210
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $440
With deep gratitude,
Brandon
