Care for Ayu, 89: help cover a carer and medication in Kediri
Ayu can't afford the care She needs after worsening Parkinson's disease; we're asking for $500.
🇮🇩 Kediri, East Java, Indonesia1,771 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 89. After worsening Parkinson's disease Ayu can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ayu desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Ayu worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 5 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $500 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $300
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $85
• Medication and prescriptions: $115
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Iloilo City.
