I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After a heart attack Tammy can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Tammy 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. Tammy 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 three months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $5,850 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (three months): $4,100 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $860 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $490 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $400 I hope life is good to you. - Easton
