Care for José, 79: help cover a carer and medication in Chattanooga

I'm caring for my father, who's 79. After a fall and hip fracture José can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and José 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. José worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 3 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 $4,600 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $510 • Part-time carer (eight months): $3,550 • Medication and prescriptions: $540 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
