I'm caring for me, who's 94. After a stroke last September Liza can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Liza desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Liza worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 5 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: β€’ Part-time carer (four months): $770 β€’ Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45 β€’ Medication and prescriptions: $85 Glad we found this place. - Liza

  • is there anything that isn't money that would help Liza?

    • Good luck, Liza. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Please keep us posted!

      • Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier

        • Good luck, Liza. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

          • Good luck, Liza. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
