I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After a fall and hip fracture Nur can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nur desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Nur worked all of her life as a seamstress, 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 $1,000 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $790 • Medication and prescriptions: $80 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80 Glad we found this place.

  • hope things get better soon, Sri. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 10 people at work. Greetings from Dallas!

    • Hang in there, Sri. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Jakarta

      • Sending good thoughts, Sri. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless

        • Take care, Sri. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

          • Stay strong. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Saint-Denis donated after I showed her your page.
