Care for Usman, 94: help cover a carer and medication in Lahore
Usman can't afford the care He needs after the death of his spouse; we're asking for $350.

I'm caring for my father, who's 94. After the death of his spouse Usman can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Usman 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.
Usman worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 4 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 $350 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $210
• Medication and prescriptions: $70
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $20
Thank you so much.

Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Dundee donated after I showed her your page. God bless
You're not alone. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Buenos Aires.
