I'm caring for me, who's 95. After a stroke last August Pavithra can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pavithra desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Pavithra worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $700 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $470 • Medication and prescriptions: $75 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 If you're reading this, thank you. - Pavithra
