I'm caring for my mother, who's 76. After a diagnosis of dementia Mónica can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mónica 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. Mónica worked all of her 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 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: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $340 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $340 • Medication and prescriptions: $370 Thank you for reading my story. - Andrés

  • Keep going, Andrés. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 13 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care

    • Stay strong. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Orlando.
