Care for Ali, 90: help cover a carer and medication in Giza
Ali can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $750.
🇪🇬 Giza, Giza, Egypt2,194 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 90. After a heart attack Ali can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ali 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.
Ali worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 5 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $750 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $460
• Medication and prescriptions: $135
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

good luck, Marwan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Hope you get there. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Lapu-Lapu.

Sending love, Marwan. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Hồ Chí Minh City so I could bring a meal. Take care.
sending good thoughts, Marwan. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Rooting for you, Marwan. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
