Care for Farhana, 78: help cover a carer and medication in Siliguri
Help Farhana stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Siliguri, West Bengal, India590 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After a fall and hip fracture Farhana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Farhana 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.
Farhana worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 5 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 $1,000 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $810
• Medication and prescriptions: $100
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
I hope life is good to you.
