Juan can't afford the care He needs after a stroke last September; we're asking for $400.

I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a stroke last September Juan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Juan 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.
Juan worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 3 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 $400 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $155
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Medication and prescriptions: $175
Every share and every dollar helps.
