I'm caring for my mother, who's 84. After worsening Parkinson's disease Okta can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Okta 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. Okta worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $200 goes: โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $50 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $90 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60 Glad we found this place.
