I'm caring for me, who's 74. After the death of her spouse Esther can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Esther 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. Esther worked all of her life as a carpenter, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $750 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $570 • Medication and prescriptions: $60 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $65 With deep gratitude, Esther
