Anh can't afford the care She needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $500.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 96. After a diagnosis of dementia 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 30 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 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 eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $500 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $300
• Medication and prescriptions: $150
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $30
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $20
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
