I'm caring for me, who's 87. After a heart attack Sadie can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Sadie 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. Sadie worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 2 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $950 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $230 • Medication and prescriptions: $520 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $200 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
