Iztapalapa

I'm caring for my mother, who's 74. After a heart attack Rocío can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rocío 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. Rocío worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 4 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 $1,750 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $1,350 • Medication and prescriptions: $250 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 I hope life is good to you.
