I'm caring for my mother, who's 85. After a heart attack Sneha can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Sneha desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Sneha worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 3 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 $500 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60
• Part-time carer (three months): $340
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $100

Hope things get better soon, Tejas. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Blessings
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Sneha?
Thank you. If you're in Durgapur I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
Praying for you. Hope you get there. After 12 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Berlin.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope January is when things finally get easier!
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Makassar so I could bring a meal. God bless.
sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
