Care for Sunita, 94: help cover a carer and medication in Madurai
Help Sunita stay in her own home with three months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India133 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 94. After a diagnosis of dementia Sunita can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Sunita 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.
Sunita worked all of her life as a nurse, 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 $800 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $600
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Medication and prescriptions: $140
With deep gratitude,
Manoj

Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Madurai.
