Care for Kevin, 85: help cover a carer and medication in Quezon City
Help Kevin stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇵🇭 Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines248 views
I'm caring for me, who's 85. After a heart attack Kevin can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kevin 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.
Kevin worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 5 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 $250 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
