I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After the death of her spouse Anh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Anh desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Anh worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 2 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 $650 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $470 • Medication and prescriptions: $75 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $35 Thank you so much. - Hà

Quick update: $198 raised so far (30%). I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
We're at 21% thanks to 4 of you. I made the first payment toward medication and prescriptions. More news soon. - Hà
Good news. Because of your gifts ($100 in total) I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
