Logan, 87, needs daily care to stay at home, and the family is raising $4,150 for a carer and medicines.

I'm caring for my father, who's 87. After the death of his spouse Logan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Logan 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.
Logan worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 4 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 $4,150 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $2,950
• Medication and prescriptions: $650
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $240
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $310
I hope life is good to you.
