Care for Todd, 85: help cover a carer and medication in Montréal

I'm caring for my father, who's 85. After the death of his spouse Todd can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Todd desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Todd worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $4,300 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $3,550 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $380 • Medication and prescriptions: $370 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
