Care for Herman, 95: help cover a carer and medication in Makati
Help Herman stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇵🇭 Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines478 views
I'm caring for me, who's 95. After a stroke last July Herman can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Herman 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.
Herman worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $850 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75
• Part-time carer (three months): $600
• Medication and prescriptions: $175
With deep gratitude,
Herman
