Care for Timur, 85: help cover a carer and medication in Saint Petersburg
Timur can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $1,500.

I'm caring for me, who's 85. After a diagnosis of dementia Timur can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Timur desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Timur worked all of his life as a factory worker, 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 $1,500 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $1,150
• Medication and prescriptions: $195
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $155
Thanks for being kind about this.
