Care for Maryna, 93: help cover a carer and medication in Novosibirsk
Help Maryna stay in her own home with eight months of part-time care.
🇷🇺 Novosibirsk Oblast, Russia900 views
I'm caring for me, who's 93. After a diagnosis of dementia Maryna can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Maryna 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.
Maryna worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $1,050 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $660
• Medication and prescriptions: $170
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $140
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Maryna?
Thank you. If you're in Novosibirsk I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for asking.
get well soon. God bless.
Hope things get better soon, Maryna. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best!
Take care. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless
