Care for Shakil, 83: help cover a carer and medication in Narayanganj
Help Shakil stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Bangladesh1,762 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 83. After the death of his spouse Shakil can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Shakil desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Shakil worked all of his 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 four months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $450 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75
• Part-time carer (four months): $310
• Medication and prescriptions: $65
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best
