I'm caring for me, who's 80. After a stroke last August Amol can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Amol 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. Amol worked all of his life as a nurse, and raised 4 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 $250 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $95 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $95 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • it takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Wudil this morning. Love from Wudil.

    • Wishing Amol a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.

      • Sending good thoughts, Amol. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
