I'm caring for my father, who's 92. After the death of his spouse Mustafa can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mustafa 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.
Mustafa worked all of his life as a bus driver, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $2,300 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $340
• Part-time carer (three months): $1,650
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $310
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
