I'm caring for me, who's 85. After a stroke last November Daniela can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Daniela desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Daniela worked all of her life as a seamstress, 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 $2,700 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $300
• Part-time carer (three months): $2,100
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $300
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
