I'm caring for me, who's 87. After a heart attack Christopher can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Christopher desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Christopher worked all of his life as a seamstress, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $5,000 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $370 • Medication and prescriptions: $360 • Part-time carer (four months): $4,270 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
