Care for Pranav, 86: help cover a carer and medication in Nagpur
Help Pranav stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India1,296 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 86. After a fall and hip fracture Pranav can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pranav desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Pranav worked all of his life as a farmer, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $900 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $640
• Medication and prescriptions: $95
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $65
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $100
Thank you for reading my story.

So sorry you're going through this, Anjali. Wishing Pranav a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Bandung
Stay strong, Anjali. This could happen to any of us. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from San Diego.
Hang in there, Anjali. Get well soon. Thinking of Nagpur
Hope it all works out, Anjali. Hope you get there. All the best.
Hang in there, Anjali. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Leeds so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. I hope September is when things finally get easier. God bless
