I'm caring for my mother, who's 85. After a heart attack Ariana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ariana 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. Ariana worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $3,000 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $2,250 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $400 • Medication and prescriptions: $350 Thank you so much.
