Care for Natalia, 86: help cover a carer and medication in Moscow
Help Natalia stay in her own home with three months of part-time care.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Moscow, Russia1,481 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 86. After a stroke last August Natalia can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Natalia desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Natalia worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 3 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 $1,750 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $1,200
• Medication and prescriptions: $210
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $145
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $195
Thanks for reading all this.

Wishing Natalia a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
