I'm caring for my father, who's 76. After a heart attack Hamisi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Hamisi desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Hamisi worked all of his 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 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: โ€ข Part-time carer (six months): $740 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $125 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $85 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $50 With deep gratitude, Caroline
