Care for Amit, 90: help cover a carer and medication in Saket
Amit can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $700.

I'm caring for my father, who's 90. After a fall and hip fracture Amit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Amit 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.
Amit worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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 $700 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $530
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40

Sending strength, Pari. This could happen to any of us.
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope December is when things finally get easier. God bless
Praying for you, Pari. Get well soon
Wishing you the best, Pari. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Zaria but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Take care, Pari. Hope the doctors have good news. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Thessaloniki!
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Toulon donated after I showed her your page.
Hope it all works out. Wishing Amit a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
You're not alone, Pari. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Saket
