Care for Gayathri, 82: help cover a carer and medication in Pune
Help Gayathri stay in her own home with eight months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India981 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 82. After a fall and hip fracture Gayathri can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gayathri desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Gayathri worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $690
• Medication and prescriptions: $80
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $105
