Pedro can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $600.

I'm caring for my father, who's 92. After a diagnosis of dementia Pedro can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pedro desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Pedro worked all of his life as a carpenter, 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 $600 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $390
• Medication and prescriptions: $90
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $120
Glad we found this place.
