Care for Trupti, 80: help cover a carer and medication in Mysuru
Help Trupti stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 India1,427 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 80. After a diagnosis of dementia Trupti can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Trupti 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.
Trupti worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $840
• Medication and prescriptions: $80
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70

Sending strength, Shreya. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Dundee.
Sending strength, Shreya. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings
