Kediri
I'm caring for my father, who's 83. After the death of his spouse Ilham can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ilham 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. Ilham worked all of his 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 three months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $600 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (three months): $420 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $50 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 If you're reading this, thank you. - Ahmad
