Care for Gijs, 81: help cover a carer and medication in Breda

I'm caring for my father, who's 81. After a diagnosis of dementia Gijs can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gijs desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Gijs worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 5 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 $2,200 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $380 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $170 • Part-time carer (eight months): $1,650 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Luuk
