Care for Rohit, 94: help cover a carer and medication in Mysuru
Rohit can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $650.
🇮🇳 Mysuru, Karnataka, India699 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 94. After a heart attack Rohit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rohit 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.
Rohit worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $650 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $450
• Medication and prescriptions: $70
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80
I hope life is good to you.
