Care for Joy, 75: help cover a carer and medication in Lagos

I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After a stroke last February Joy can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Joy desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Joy worked all of her life as a nurse, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $250 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $100 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $100 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 With deep gratitude, Olumide
