I'm caring for me, who's 96. After a heart attack Alejandra can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Alejandra desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Alejandra worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,150 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $660 • Medication and prescriptions: $170 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $120 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $200 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Alejandra
