I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After a heart attack Freya can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Freya 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. Freya worked all of her life as a factory worker, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $3,950 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $2,850 • Medication and prescriptions: $440 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $195 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $465 If you're reading this, thank you.
