Care for Pauline, 77: help cover a carer and medication in Saint-Denis
Pauline can't afford the care She needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $3,100.
🇫🇷 Saint-Denis, Île-de-France, France937 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After a heart attack Pauline can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pauline 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.
Pauline worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,100 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $2,050
• Medication and prescriptions: $520
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $270
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $260
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
