I'm caring for my mother, who's 87. After a stroke last June Keerthana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Keerthana desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Keerthana worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four 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 $900 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $105 • Medication and prescriptions: $65 • Part-time carer (four months): $730 Every share and every dollar helps. - Gopal

  • Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Tokyo.

    • Keep going, Gopal. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Mesa donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
